Online drug policy activism training - Recovering Justice

About this Event

In the face of mass quarantines and global uncertainty where is the space for sustaining and motivating campaigning for drug policy reform?

We have decided to set up our activist training online and will adapt our approach to include the use of creative social media.

This gives us a wonderful opportunity to bring you some live links with global campaigners and join from any part of the world.

We haven't finalised the details but expect topics to include:

• the power of telling our stories in a policy context

• how to engage politicians – pressure points, who holds power, etc.

• the difference between activism and advocacy, and when to use each.

• how to engage the media including writing opinion pieces, getting quoted, etc
