About the Event
As part of our support for Mutiny, the RYSE is running a co-designed series of workshops to upskill folks as Mutiny Organisers + spread the ideas behind Mutiny to loads more local young people - and this session is all about Direct Action and Theories of Change:
- What is 'Direct Action' and why would Mutiny look to use it to help win positive change in Stroud?
- What are 'Theories of Change' and how can we learn from how folks have changed the world in the past to better build our movements?
- How do different ways of making change work together and what is the diversity of tactics that Mutiny might use?
And please don't think you have to be an expert to come along, these aren't things any of us are taught about and we're all learning together - so bring you curiosity and that's all you'll need. There will be snacks but not dinner so do eat beforehand and bring some paper and a pen - and make sure you see the location info:
- Tuesday 3rd - 6:30-8:30pm - Stroud Valleys Art Space

- Tuesday 24th - 6:30-8:30pm - is 'To Be Decided' but will be in Stroud centre/no less that 10 mins walk
And finally these sessions are specifically for 13-25 year olds only as they're youth-for-youth educational spaces designed to help people get involved in Mutiny - but don't worry Olders (over 25s) there will be lots coming your way soon and if you're keen to stay in the loop then sign the Declaration of Support and you'll get all the info!
