Using a Popular Education approach and activities from Gearing Up for Action, the training will give participants tools to:
Elevate the lived experiences of community members they work with;
Make connections between the work of their organization and the impacts of trucks and trains in the communities they work in;
Enable community members to envision and advocate for healthier communities.
When: Friday June 21st from 9 am to 5 pm
Where: Pacific Institute, 654 13th Street (at MLK), Preservation Park, Oakland, CA 94612
Contact: Catalina Garzon, cgarzon@pacinst.org or 510-251-1600
Space is limited! Please register here if you plan on attending as we are tailoring the training to the particular issues and campaigns that participants are working on. Lunch and snacks will be provided.
