Group & Project Updates
Updates from active groups and projects that we heard from this month, including asks for help and ways to get involved.
ION Glasgow Movement Infrastructure Event 📅 We’re planning to host (at least one) event to discuss movement infrastructure, starting with a focus on calendars and making visible what’s going on; learning from what works, what already exists, and where the gaps are. If you’d be interested in getting involved, please get in touch! | ION Glasgow Autonomous Organising Workshop Series 💬 Multiple groups are still actively working on a series of workshops designed to be practical introductions to autonomous organising in various forms. Got an idea? Get in touch! |
That's all for this month. If there’s an event or project that you’d like to see featured here next month, or added to our website, please reach out to [email protected].
In solidarity,
ION Glasgow
