Learn how to:

  • Build awareness of peak oil and climate change
  • Engage citizens from all walks of life in neighbourhood or community projects

 
This is a full two days of learning. From the practical (organizing Open Space sessions and planning awareness activities) to the theoretical (principles of resilience and theories of change), you will leave the session better equipped to offer leadership and build community in the place you call home.
