Grassroots environmental organizations thrive when they center people at the heart of their work. This webinar introduces Engagement Organizing (EO), a strategy for building relationships, deepening community leadership, and creating lasting impact.
Join William van Geest (Ecology Ottawa) and Montana Burgess (Mountaintop Strategies) as they share their first-hand experiences implementing EO in environmental organizations. They’ll discuss what works, what doesn’t, and provide practical tips for leaders looking to begin the transition toward people-powered organizations.
What you’ll take away:
Understanding the principles of engagement organizing
How to start implementing EO practices in your organization
Policies, procedures, and structures that support volunteer and community leadership
This session is ideal for environmental non-profit leaders, program staff, and anyone interested in building authentic, community-centred engagement.
