Movement Building and Civil Resistance: Key Resources for Movement Organizers

This brief outlines common challenges faced by activists and movement organizers and highlights an acute lack of support in building and “professionalizing” their knowledge. It then recommends a short, self-led course to learn some fundamentals of movement building and civil resistance, with an estimated completion time of under 20 hours and a materials cost of under $50.
