- Action Camp is hosted by Rising Tide Sydney and Addison Road Community Centre on unceded Gadigal Country. We pay our respects to all First Nations people and acknowledge their ongoing resistance to injustice under colonial rule. -risingtide.org.au/action-camp
We're bringing together our friends and allies to build relationships across the movements for justice, and to get serious about sharing the skills that are required to build community power.
Rising Tide is a climate-focused movement targeting the world's largest coal port in Newcastle, and is building skills and power both in the local community and around the country to take on the fossil fuel industry.
But whether your focus is in the First Nations, climate, anti-genocide, queer, or union movements - or any other struggle for a better world - our needs for relationships of friendship and solidarity, and the skills required to run effective campaigns, are much the same.
However, we hope that you will meet people who are not like you, and share different experiences of life. This is to be celebrated, as relationships - and movements - grow by listening to each others' stories and respecting the wonderful diversity that brings us together.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT ACTION CAMP
*General program*
Rising Tide facilitators will run a series of workshops and trainings sharing some of our core frameworks and skills, including campaign strategy, spokes-council and consensus decision-making, and storytelling.
We're drawing on experienced movement allies to run participatory workshops on conversations, deep canvassing, legal observing, action coordination, mass and activist cooking, and many more skills.
In the Addi Road recording studio, we'll be hosting "in conversation" events and panels, both to participate in and to record for distribution around the movement after the event - making sure the wisdom shared can be accessible going forward.
Expect zine workshops, banner painting, singing and dancing - and bring your instrument for evening jams and open mics.
Come for a semi-facilitated, relationship-building People's Supper and open mic on Friday night. Stay tuned for concert announcements for Saturday night, and action prep on Sunday night!

*Who is running workshops?*
We're organising through our relational networks in the grassroots movement and through Addi Road - we look forward to promoting individual workshops as they're locked in to our dynamic and evolving program.
*Where will my financial contribution go?*
Tickets for Action Camp are free for First Nations, under 18s, and those experiencing housing or financial insecurity. We want to make this community space as accessible as possible. Financial contributions will go towards venue and food costs, cultural labour, and logistical support - this is an entirely volunteer-run event.
