Workshop: Sustainable Collective Organizing and Collaboration

Burnout and collective organizing too often go hand-in-hand. How might we build collective structures that best enable us to distribute labor based on the variable skills and capacities within our group, recruit new people to our initiatives when we need them, and stay connected to our vision, mission and ethics even when times get tough? In this conversation-based interactive workshop, we will together explore tools, strategies and frameworks for working together in more sustainable ways. The format of the workshop taps into the lived experiences of participants in the space, and the facilitator is also happy to share some better practices from their own experience if the group finds that valuable.

Sarj Lynch is a Berlin-based facilitator, learning designer and community care organizer with a lot of curiosity. They are interested in dreaming new realities and practicing utopias with people who care. They are a cofounder of aequa (2018), the aequa Workshops Collective (2020), and Berlin Collective Action e.V. (2020). They are also a resident of Refuge Worldwide, hosting the monthly aequa Radio show. Growing more capable and more alive in community is their passion, especially when working with comrades on initiatives focused on mutual aid and peer support, queer liberation, as well as border abolition and migrant rights.
