Briefing: Prepared for arrest?

If you are new to XR or new to the idea of getting arrested please come to this briefing about what you need to know and how to prepare. This briefing does not and cannot take the place of in-depth NVDA training but might help you decide whether you want to go further.

Content includes: informed consent, de-escalation, Arrestee Support, the Buddy system, legal considerations.

You will need to prepare by familiarising yourself with Extinctions Rebellion's demands and principles, which you can find here: What is XR - Extinction Rebellion Australia (ausrebellion.earth)

The Gallery Room is right on Elizabeth Street, part of the Multicultural Hub, 506 Elizabeth Street, Melbourne, 3000 AU.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are new, we strongly recommend that you attend one of our regular introductory sessions - Heading for Extinction and What To Do About It - and our Nonviolent Direct Action Training and De-escalation training, before you come to Marshaling training. These can be found under Events at https://ausrebellion.earth/ . You can also watch a "Heading for Extinction . . ." video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVjjRHarTM8
