From Jargon to Action – July 11, 6-7:30 EST

This first in the series will be led by Tom Liacas and Kenzie Harris of the Global Grassroots Support Network.

The training will focus on how to translate academic research to accessible, actionable information for communities and movements involved in transformative struggles. Come unlearn the habits of jargon and fancy words and learn new practices to make sure the way you communicate research findings can serve the folks on the ground leading transformative change.
