We are facing the total collapse of everything we know, and time is running out to turn it around.

Please join us for the our newly-revamped Non-Violent Direct Action (NVDA) Training and take to the streets in the name of Extinction Rebellion. This is an essential session for new Rebels, and a timely update for older ones as it has been updated for 2021! We will prepare you for taking part in and organising actions for Extinction Rebellion in Victoria and beyond.

THIS WHOLE EVENT IS ON ZOOM!

We cover all the bases to prepare you as much as possible for taking to the streets:

  1. Our Core Strategy: what we want, and how we will get it
  2. Non-Violent Direct Action: what it is and how to do it!
  3. Know Your Rights in Victoria
  4. Getting Arrested, supporting arrestees and going to court
  5. Action Skills and practicing with other Rebels
  6. Affinity Groups and how you can get involved!

Our experienced trainers aim to give people the time, space and experience to consider the many ways of taking part in and supporting NVDA and Civil Disobedience and to feel comfortable about choosing to do so.

Attendance is very important for those who plan to take part in actions, whether you do or do not wish to risk arrest.

The workshop is also a great opportunity to meet other rebels and learn to work together to build community and form affinity groups to take further action.

We'll send you some resources closer to the date. Meanwhile, if you have any queries, or if you can no longer make it, please contact xrtrainingvic@protonmail.com
