WELLNESS AS A FORM OF SOCIAL ACTIVISM TRACK

“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” Audre Lorde

The Wellness as a Form of Social Activism will be offering a workshop area that encourages sessions that introduce people to healing justice.  We want to share basic healing skills, and that share models for community and collective organizing around health and wellness.

Remember, this is the Free Movement Conference, so proposals should illustrate how to connect health/healing justice work with community building.

Sessions can be workshops, round-table discussions, presentations, caucuses, and any other format you can imagine. To submit a session proposal, you will need to go through Free Movement application form.  Workshop leaders get free registration for the conference. Coordinator of this track is Chris Poorten

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

Tracks are looking for hands-on workshops, strategy sessions, and meet-ups that share stories, skills and best practices. Your session/workshop should be engaging and interactive. Including people who are direct stakeholders or who are directly impacted by the issue strongly aligns with Free Movement's goals of building grassroots power, and should be encompassed as often as possible.

Contact info@workingnarratives.org with questions and comments.

Sessions must be accessible to all bodies, genders, and ages by creating a space that is inclusive and welcoming.
