The Master's tools will never dismantle the Master's house.

You have a brilliant idea to change the world BUT

1 too often the ways you organise recreate the culture you want to change

2 too often hard-won changes are easily swept away by this toxic system

Does this sound familiar?

How are the ways you are organising shaping and limiting what you can achieve?

What would it mean to organise from a fundamentally different assumption to that of this toxic system - that of an embodied sense of interconnection?

This is an embodied and powerful workshop for those of you who want to change this system.

If possible: bring a blindfold and paper and pen.

Organising from Elsewhere.

Saturday 4 pm @ 7 Billion Presidents.

More information:

Organising from Elsewhere  is for anyone who has tried to change our toxic system, only to become burnt out by infighting, politics, and the failure to bring about real change.

It’s for those who are curious about why our ways of organising fail – and what we can do to create new ways of moving and deciding together.

Our current ways of organising are underpinned by the same embodied notion of separation as our extractive socio-economic system.

This means they recreate the cultures and power dynamics of the very system we are trying to change.

Organising from Elsewhere is therefore trying to encourage social movements to think about how the way they organise shapes and limits what they are able to achieve.

We are also trying support groups to create bespoke forms of organising which are underpinned by a fundamentally different assumption to that of this extractive system, that of interconnectedness.

Organising from Elsewhere bridging indigenous knowledge and social movements for systemic change.
