We are incredibly proud to present this programme. For five years, we have been working to create a vocational training in organising. We believe that Sweden’s civil society has a lot to gain from meeting, getting a terminology for different methods of change and having the time and space to take tactics and strategy further in the ecosystem of local associations and established organisations that strive in the same direction. We are creating a course we would have liked to take ourselves and are eager to share the content with those who will take the training.
