[CollectivePower] Strategies for Countering Authoritarianism, FabRiders' Facilitating Collective Power Lab, Online, March

[Dirk Slater]

Hello Collective Power Contributors,

I’m running these next month, and I’ll be utilising a couple of exercises that are destined for the playbook. If you’re interested in attending, let me know, and I can send you instructions on how to receive a guest registration. 

Also, feel free to share this with your networks or anyone else who might benefit from participating.

Across the world, authoritarianism is on the rise—eroding democratic spaces, silencing dissent, and undermining collective action. Now, more than ever, we must build strong, participatory movements that can resist repression and create just alternatives.

The Facilitating Collective Power Lab is a hands-on training designed to equip facilitators, organisers and activists with the skills to cultivate inclusive, participatory spaces where people can strategise, collaborate, and take action together. Hosted by FabRiders, this course will help you:

🔹 Develop facilitation techniques to copower with groups to work collectively
🔹 Strengthen networks of resistance and solidarity
🔹 Build spaces where all voices can be heard—and resist repression
