Negotiation Training for Activists

Online

If you don't ask, you won't get. Asking, demanding, protesting, lobbying for something, or for someone to do something, is a negotiation. It might just be 'if you do this, then we'll stop hassling you.' Knowing how to negotiate is key to successful campaigning. This session will cover the key frameworks to make you a better negotiator, campaigner and help you get what you want and animals and the planet need.

There is an opportunity to explore these concepts together and discuss our 2020 strategy.

Jake Conroy aka The Cranky Vegan. Interview and Q&A

Online

"15 years ago a group of activists known as the SHAC 7 were found guilty of using their website to incite attacks on those who did business with Huntingdon Life Sciences, one of the biggest animal testing labs of its kind. In response to a grassroots campaign against injustice, the FBI and US government threw their full weight into branding these young people as terrorists and getting them put away. The documentary The Animal People tells the story of the SHAC campaign, allowing us to learn from history when developing our own strategies. Last month as part of our ongoing Animal Rebellion Arts Space we sat down and watched this documentary and now we're going to have the chance to[…]
