The Global Grassroots Support Network (GGSN) is an initiative building upon the Blueprints for Change project. The GGSN is a security conscious community of practice that brings together people and projects supporting “grassroots justice-oriented”* activists/organizers from around the world, and grassroots organizers themselves from the Global South.
Our objective is to enable the free sharing of campaigning expertise, resources and ideas across borders, so that members can benefit from each other’s knowledge and create multinational collaborations.

Our network currently connects over 200 seasoned grassroots organizers, campaigners, coaches and more. They come from Africa, Australia/New Zealand, Central Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America and South Asia. To widen our reach and get outside the usual circles of privilege and geography, we have started work with Regional Coordinators to bring even more folks in from Latin America, South Asia and Africa.
