ChangeMakers Organising School – Online Course (Videos)

Introduction

Want to learn about all kinds of change making, building relationships, people power, organising and leadership development?

The ChangeMakers Organising School seeks to strengthen the leadership, knowledge, skills and relationships between the hundreds of thousands of social movement members and organisational volunteers across Australia (and our broader region) who want to take the crises created and exacerbated by the pandemic and make deep real change. The training is designed to help mass movement and organisational participants across Australia reimagine their power while they work on specific movements and campaigns.

The school values leadership development and seeks to explore and understand concepts like power, action, organisations, narrative, relationships and action as the bedrock for building a democratic public life. Whilst anchored in the practice of the Industrial Areas Foundation, this training has an open and agnostic approach to its content.
