The Transition Movement
|
The Transition Movement has launched an online campaign to help people to learn to "do transition" in communities. They have a website and newsletter that will enable people to embark on rewarding learning journeys.
|
They seek to answer the fundamental questions;
|
- How do we become more than consumers?
- How do we train ourselves for post-capitalism?
- How do we get involved to create local communities characterised by wellbeing and resilience?
Just dipping ones toes, or delving deep, each practice offers a range of ways in which one can learn about them. There are events coming up in April that people can sign up for now.
