This international conference will offer a fantastic opportunity to make new alliances and work with the other movements and initiatives which are all aiming at reclaiming our creative, collaborative, place-based way of living.
You will work with a wide range of people: from Rob Hopkins sharing his latest thinking on pattern language and how it can be used as a powerful resource for change, Samuel Nnah and Justin Kenrick on grassroots groups in Cameroon working on community rights and resilience, to Knees Up, who help Londoners organise street parties as a way to build community. From Alastair MacIntosh on reconnecting with our own ways of being indigenous to Gemma Seth-Smith and Serge Marti on using film to work on climate change responses in Indonesia, and many many others. There will also be a 5-11 and 12-16 year olds programme from the fantastic Moving Sounds.
The conference is hosted by Transition Scotland Support with the support of Transition Network and Edinburgh University. It is on the weekend of November 20th-21st (with overnight accommodation available from the 19th) and will be a chance to deepen and broaden our understanding, our alliances and our actions.
Tickets are available on a sliding price scale with accommodation priced to fit all budgets. To book your place go to http://transitionsdiverserroutes.eventbrite.com/. We look forward to seeing you and hope you will arrive in time to join our welcoming ceilidh on Friday evening!
