This toolkit was developed by the The Climate Reality Project Canada and The Climate Justice Organizing Hub. Rural or small city organizing presents challenges and opportunities that are unique from urban or larger city environments. This toolkit aims to support climate advocates and organizers in rural and remote communities in empowering their friends, families, and neighbours to unite and transform themselves and their communities into climate leaders.
The toolkit:
- is tailored to the specific needs and context of rural and remote climate action organizing.
- includes overview of local governance structures and community organizing best practices.
- has case studies that explore themes related to
- accessibility,
- language,
- collaboration and
- avenues for advocacy.
Estimated time: 1-2 hours to review. Group discussion time may vary.
