Resources for Base-building

Meeting Facilitators


Building a movement isn’t just about carrying out an action. Movement-building is about growing relationships, and growing people’s sense of power.

A young organiser was asking for advice on how to be a better organiser. An older organiser replied, “You are selfish—you take all this work and do it yourself. But other people want to participate and help out. They need you to be more giving and give them meaningful work so they can feel part of the organisation.” Those are wise words—and true for many of us. So how do we get others involved by giving work away? One tool to help us with this is: the menu of tasks.
