Act Build Change Members Living Room

As we grow and learn in our organising, connecting with other organisers helps us in sharing experiences and seeing where we can learn from each other and where there are places we can build power together. This virtual event will be a space to meet other organisers, discuss triumphs we are experiencing, and dissect challenges and issues that are coming up for us. We will also be spending time together to brainstorm ways in which we can support each other, and ways in which Act Build Change can support members in the issues they are facing.

Please Note:
