350 Aotearoa is running a Grassroots Climate Leaders' Workshop from the 3rd-6th of February (Waitangi Weekend). It has been organised to provide newly-appointed regional field co-ordinators with training to kick-start a strong 2012, by leading campaigns that are committed to combatting climate change.
They also particularly welcome participation from people new to 350, or those who want to build on experience as climate leaders ...so here's ashout out from 350.org
Participants will learn climate leadership skills and start to put them into action for local and national campaigns relating to climate change and clean energy.
As they put it "Running climate leadership workshops is one of the best ways we know to strengthen and build the 350 movement. We recognise leadership, organising and communication as three key pieces of building the political will necessary to solve the climate crisis. We’re not just looking for activists–we’re looking for people with leadership potential and a commitment to staying engaged. Does that sound like you?"
if it does then the application form is here or email Rachel
Participants workshop costs (accommodation and food) will be covered by 350 Aotearoa, with some transport grants available to support your travel.
