Overview

The Action Network, a powerful tool for organising and mobilising supporters, is gaining traction among social justice groups worldwide. The recent protests, such as the #GotaGoGama movement that led to the resignation of Sri Lanka’s president in 2022, illustrate the power of organised activism. For campaigners in Asia, leveraging tools like Action Network can amplify their impact, streamline their efforts, and facilitate broader engagement.

If you’re not already utilising Action Network, this session is designed for you. Join the training to harness this powerful tool for your social justice campaigns and connect with a network of activists across Asia and beyond.
