Introduction to Transformative Community Organising

This training introduces you to transformative community organising – an approach that combines the strategic power-building of community organising with the sustaining practice of collective care.

Through interactive exercises and tools, you’ll work through the essentials: understanding what organisers actually do, what power means, and different ways to build teams and movements. You’ll then explore why collective care matters for sustaining your work over the long term, and guiding principles for centring human experience and putting care into practice.

Outcomes:

• Understand what transformative community organising is.
• Explore fundamental concepts of community organising and collective care. 
• Reflect on how you can apply these principles to your own work.

This training is for both new and experienced organisers who want to understand what transformative community organising is. We recommend all members start here before moving on to our foundations series.
