Aorta: Facilitate for Freedom trainings
Aorta believes that facilitation has a deep impact on groups in our movements. The conversations that happen when we gather result in decisions that shape our budgets, campaigns, strategy, and more! Our flagship 3-hour online Facilitate for Freedom Fundamentals Training lays the groundwork for how anyone facilitating a meeting can make choices that guide the group towards our most liberatory values. Through dynamic storytelling and real meeting examples, this training introduces two of AORTA’s facilitation pedagogy principles: remove barriers to full participation and the practice of principled disagreement. Attending the Fundamentals training also gives you access to our Skill Up! Intensive.
We have two new sessions debuting this Spring! The first Fundamentals training this Spring is specifically catered to PoC identified facilitators, and the last session this Spring will include ASL interpretation. Learn more and sign up at the aorta.coop/headwaters.
