Summer Gathering: the student campaigner training camp
Summer Gathering
All across the country, students are yearning for change. The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer and the fossil fuel companies are driving more climate change. This isn’t inevitable. Working with others across the world, we can secure a better future. But only if we plan, learn, and build our movement.
Whether you are at the helm of a large and active student group, or a lone voice on your campus calling out for change, the Summer Gathering is the place for you. Join students from across the country to plan together for the year ahead. Learn how to win your campaigns and map out how to build an unbeatable climate or social justice movement on your campus and across the country.
The Summer Gathering is a masterclass in challenging injustice. It’s where we plan to win. Be there, or you’ll be missing out.
Highlights will include:
- Media training
- External speakers on rebooting the UK climate movement and more
- Planning for the year ahead
- Meeting activists from all over the country
- Master classes in campaign film-making AND occupying
- A bonfire and talent show
- Building the movement for a Fossil-Free UK
- A special celebration of a decade of Go Green campaigning
- Sweatshop Free strategy and movement building
- The world famous Summer Gathering ceilidh
