We also hear stories of those who are keen to roll their
sleeves up, get organised and do what it takes to welcome and support. Stories
of those who are keen to speak to their elected representatives in an organised
way and find solutions.
Yes these stories matter and inspire us; they challenge us
on a daily basis; stay with us for a while. What matters most is the choice we
take. Action or Inaction? Our actions or Inactions determine the outcomes.
Action is what helps us address our anger; our concerns; our frustrations; and
the call to do the right thing at the right time.
Campaign Organising Network is a good platform to be part of
and do what is right today. As part of the Together with Refugees initiative,
the Campaign Organising Network is there to support local organisers,
activists, campaigners and all those keen to engage in welcome and show the
better side.
Glad to be part of this network and offer training and
practical support. So good to see more than 100 people and groups joining the
Campaign Organising Network most recently. Some have taken the Practical
Organising Tools and The Practical
Campaigning Tools training that take place online. Many others have signed up
or are signing up.
The call is as always clear. 'May every community, every
neighbourhood, everyone capable to help do so and change the lives of those
stuck in the system.'
You can join the Campaign Organising Network and work with
amazing organisations including Freedom from Torture Asylum Reform Initiative
and many others around the country.
In addition you could benefit
from the training and see if Organising is for you. More info on the Campaign
Organising Network could be found in the below link.
