Facilitation Training
Resist + Renew are back in Bristol for a one day Facilitation workshop!
As a grassroots facilitation and training collective we've learnt a thing or two about meetings. And with so much organising and mobilising to be done across many fronts, we want to equip more folks to feel ready and confident to facilitate meetings in their groups and campaigns.
If you’re part of social movement groups and newer or less confident at facilitating - this day is for you!
We will cover:
What 'good' meetings look and feel like
The facilitator's role in supporting them to happen
The skills of a facilitator and practising building them
Models of decision making and trying them out
Power and privilege, accessibility and healthy group culture in our meetings
What kinds of meetings might this be useful for?
Day to day / regular meetings in campaign or community groups
One off meetings
This isn’t aimed at:
Facilitating a large gathering or conference
Facilitating a group conflict or mediation
Hot and cold drinks, snacks and lunch will be provided.
Who are Resist + Renew?
