Brought to you by the Pace e Bene Youth Collective, this 1 ½ hr webinar will explore how to be skillful at intergenerational organizing and youth allyship. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn how we can welcome and support the strengths of all ages.
While we recognize that there is no natural way to measure “old” and “young” (it is all relative, after all). We know that everyone, no matter which generation we call our own, must come together to change the dynamics of our relationships so we all can have the peace, the justice, and the compassionate understanding we each need and deserve.
In this webinar, the Youth Collective and other presenters will speak about how we dismantle ageism, avoid some of the common biases, and build truly inclusive movements. We'll look at the difference between intergenerational organizing and being great allies to youth-led movements. (Both are powerful and both have a role to play.)
If you are interested in ushering in the positive change that we all wish to see in the world, join us for this extraordinary seminar September 9th @ 4:30pm PST.
We are asking for a suggested donation of $25 for the webinar, which will go to further the vital work of the Youth Collective, but you can also register for free if you are unable to contribute.
