Building skill sets and healing for change. Working within the field of international development, this project is in response to needs identified by Mary Anne during her individual project funded by EF in Round 2, and will continue with work which aims to heal – rather than perpetuate – injustice, with the hope of building Healing Solidarity as an organisation. Working with their existing large online community, this grant will specifically support: skills building in trauma informed approaches to healing and connection; provide low cost healing spaces for their Black, Indigenous and People of Colour (BIPOC) members to support their healing and resource their participation in this work; build story-telling and communications skills to build capacity for courageous story-telling for change. Beneficiaries: Those working in international development, activists in the UK with a global impact, e.g. via work on migration and anti-racism. Open to all ages and genders, with designated healing spaces also set aside specifically for BIPOC members. Benefits will impact many others who participants work alongside.
