Train for Non Violent Direct Action to stop WestCONnex!


Sunday, 3 April 2016 
10:00 am to 5.00 pm 
Sydney Park, St Peters

Places filling fast! Bookings must be finalised shortly!

The Baird Government is arrogantly bulling ahead with its $18 billion plan to lock Sydney into decades of motorway building and high-rise redevelopment. Only non-violent direct action can stop this assault on our city. This is your opportunity to learn its theory and practice!

Course includes: introduction and overview, the role of NVDA in the WestConnex campaign, your fears and concerns, legal aspects, roles in direct action, practical and emotional preparation, physical tactics and role play.

YOUR TRAINER   Nicola Paris of CounterAct has 15 years experience across the full spectrum of progressive social change campaigns. CounterAct has run workshops for, or collaborated with, The Wilderness Society, Quit Coal, Australian Youth Climate Coalition, Leard Forest Alliance, Australian Student Environment Network, Friends of the Earth, Lock the Gate, the Melbourne East West Tunnel Campaign and others.
