Active Hope / Sophie Howarth

This is stage two of a previously funded project. It aims to build capacity based on the learning and experience from stage one, through the delivery of 4 facilitator training programmes and a masterclass. The project will support and enable people from diverse and marginalised backgrounds to cultivate capacity for learning, understanding and forming allegiances through their commitment to network and act for social and ecological justice. This training will be based in principles of inter-connectedness, inclusivity, wellbeing and compassion. An Outreach Workshop product will also be developed for wider use, and the trainees will hold a public event on connecting social movements, and further raise awareness. Beneficiaries: London based. Primary group is 12-16 people recruited for their capacity to deliver workshops for different groups. They will receive training and mentorship; and will be recruited from a range of social and ecological justice groups, specifically from BAME backgrounds. Secondary group will consist of workshop attendees, plus event participants.
