Theories of Change and Conflict Escalation | Stay Grounded | 3-6 July

From July 3 – 6 2025, social movements and people engaged in countering air traffic’s and tourism’s negative impacts will meet for a big conference. The conference Beyond Aviation, Tourism and Capitalism is organized by the @StayGrounded_net network.

What can we do to win the battle against the escalating ecological and social crises?

We’ll have time to evaluate, discuss our strategies, and build relationships to empower, support and learn from each other. The conference will work without a flight taken. It will take place in person in Barcelona, with possibilities for online participation for parts of the program, and local hubs in India and Mexico.

Trainers from Fermento will facilitate a #strategy #workshop , Theories of Change and Conflict Escalation, to serve as a warm-up for the rest the conference.

New #training coming up!

Theories of Change and Conflict Escalation | April 17th, 6pm UTC

How does #change happen? There are various approaches to what we can do to achieve a certain change we want to see in the world or in society, and how to do it. There are also various approaches to why we think certain things work, and others don't. That's what we're going to explore in this session.

As part of the preparations of the international #congress of The Surge, trainers of Fermento have accompanied the #facilitation team of the congress. We supported the #organizers with two #online #trainings (one basic and one advanced) on facilitating meetings.

The Surge is a European #movement uniting anti-fascist, pro-Palestine and climate justice movements. More information can be found here: https://thesurgeinternational.net/

Often times, groups just jump from one action to the other without thinking strategically about it. How can we constantly learn from our mistakes, take risks, and "fail forward"?
