Building a Blueprint created by Alexa and supported by Giselle.
Building a Blueprint is designed to help workshop-goers distinguish different event types and understand their appropriateness in the context of a social movement’s goals. Attendees will become familiar with different protest forms and their uses, effectiveness, and requirements. To develop these skills, attendees will identify and defend a type of event (or protest) for a given situation. These types of protests will be reinforced by a number of examples of successful and unsuccessful protests around the world.
