*EXCITING NEWS! OPIRG York has joined Tools for Change*

Hey Folks!

OPIRG York has joined Tools for Change! Tools for Change helps you develop
skills to advocate for social change- this is one of OPIRG's objectives as
well, so it's fitting we join the Tools for Change team.

Tools for Change organizes trainings in Toronto throughout the year- and
with OPIRG York joining, some workshops will be hosted at the York
University Keele Campus, and *workshops will be open to and free to all
York University students. *Trainers tend to be people who are active in
social change and from Toronto, and with York now on board, we will help
host some workshops at York that are useful to York students and OPIRG York
members and community!

With this announcement, our first OPIRG York Tools for Change workshop will
be taking place on Wednesday, October 19th, and will be a Facilitation 101
trainin

*Facilitation 101*
A major part of movement building is lots of meetings. Meetings can be
inspiring, hellish, or somewhere in between. The quality of a meeting
depends a lot on good facilitation. Facilitators aren’t supposed to run the
show, and they do more than keep track of who wants to speak. Come learn
and share strategies for fostering good communication, equity, active
listening and effective decision making for meetings of all shapes and
sizes.

*PLEASE REGISTER HERE:*
