Prepare for upcoming actions or just learn more about the whys and hows of using Non-violent Direct Action to sound the alarm, galvanise people and increase pressure on governments and corporations to change tack and lessen the effects of the climate crisis before it’s too late.

Learn about XR Vic’s organisational tactics, the legal implications of arrest, the nuts and bolts of locking-on and our fundamental guiding principles. Prepare yourself to work in a trusted pair, or group, to safely begin to take the first steps with support from experienced rebels. Consider how to take care of yourself and others to remain safe and energised during and after actions. Think about where your skills can be best used. There are plenty of essential non-arrestable support roles as well as front-line roles where arrest is more likely.

If you want more information, check out the Extinction Rebellion Australia website or attend one of our online Q&A sessions (fortnightly on Wednesday evenings, details on our events page), or you can email us at xrtrainingvic@protonmail.com
