Alliance-Building Across Philosophical, Tactical and Psychological Barriers

Rifts often develop between activists and organizations working toward similar goals, but with differing ideas about how to go about achieving those goals. In this workshop we will discuss our work building powerful alliances between groups that have tactical, philosophical and other differences and relate these experiences to your own. We will address the need for different types of organizations and how to build coalitions and movements that maintain breathing-room and at the same time create collaborative spaces for these different groups to share.
