Movement For Life training gives you the building blocks to spread your values and create change in your community. Together, we’re putting the power back in the hands of the people.

 

Our leading community organising training is all about immersing yourself in an incredible learning and development experience.

 

Using tools and techniques honed in community organising programs across the world, we’ll help you reach new audiences and have empowering conversations about the things that matter to you— and the reasons we should all support life.

 

This free two-day course will give you experience and skills in:

 

  • The theory and frameworks of community organising
  • Relational organising
  • Leadership and facilitation
  • Communications for change (telling your personal narrative)
  • Campaign planning
  • Activating your local community
  • Building grassroots teams and volunteer management 

 

Once you’ve completed our 6 module online Fundamentals of Community Organising training, you’ll be well equipped to work with us on our current campaigns and join the innovative Movement for Life national community organising program. Through this program you will also have the opportunity to work with your local community and existing local networks to take effective action on the local issues you care about.
