About this event

1 day 9 hours

On the weekend of 29-30 June, you’re invited to These Are Our Neighbours.

In these troubled times of increasing immigration raids and polarisation, coming together to build collective power and care is key. Meet your ‘neighbours’ from across different groups and movements, share experiences and plan for the time ahead.

How do we take action in a way that unites, not divides us? How do we work across our differences? How can we defend our neighbours against repressive border policies?

Programme

More details on the programme are emerging: Some of the sessions are closed and will be for members of particular organising groups. If you've been invited by a member of your group but you're not sure where your session is on this programme - get in touch.
Other bits of the programme will be open to all. If you'd like to organise or request a particular session, get in touch for a chat at o4p@tripodtraining.org.
