Core Organizer Training

 Registration is closed for this event
Mid-South Peace and Justice Center is offering our second weekend Core Organizer Training of 2013 on November 8-10.

The Core Organizer Training teaches participants the foundational skills they need to be effective organizers and win on issues that are important to them. 
We train using popular education and integrating experiential education, allowing people to learn in a hands-on, direct manner, while also drawing out the expertise that the individual already has within. The result is a training that is fully interactive and has direct application in each session. 

Topics covered include:
Intro to Organizing, Organizing your Community, Campaign Planning, Facilitating Meetings, Media, Transforming Conflict and Nonviolent Direct Action

What: Core Organizer Training. A maximum of 20 people will be trained in order for all to get individual support and for the maximum learning potential for the group.
