TripodTripod: Training for Creative Social Action
TripodOrganising for Power was a strand of our work designed with and for Scottish movements for racial and migrant justice, which ran from 2017-2024.
The programme was created for groups fighting for the rights and welfare of refugees, asylum seekers, migrants and people of colour, this programme aimed to grassroots organising for racial justice in Scotland, and took a variety of forms. Intensive residentials supported the leadership of many folks in the system to take action on their rights, connect with others and have time out. Larger gathering supported the sharing of learning, connection with those in other movements, and many different trainings support key organising skills to fight better together.
What happened in 2024?
We hosted a programme of Glasgow gatherings to connect organisers across groups and movements, share learning and grow together!
Sharing lessons from the past years, an opportunity to learn from the wins and challenges and reflect on where the movement can go next.
How movement-building across different approaches, campaigns and experiences can help us win.
From the hostile environment to a radical welcome;
imagining beyond the state, borders and criminalisation.
Campaigns that unite, not divide us in times of crisis;
how we reclaim ground from the right and build collective power for a liveable future.
Much of this weekend was tailored around specific groups, if you’re part of an anti-raids or other group who were part of the event, get in touch for the follow up materials.
