Action Tricks

Inspired by Jonny Bakers Worship Tricks I’ve decided to start a series of blog posts about all things campaigning and action, which I’ll be calling action tricks, consisting of thoughts, tips, resources and actions around campaigning and speaking out.

Having been involved for sometime in campaigning and finding a voice in the world of politics for those people and issues that usually go un-heard, I hope I’ve got something worthwhile to share. All the posts will be part of a series archived under an action tricks category tag so if nothing else, it will be a good personal archive of things I once came across and thoughts I once had!

When talking to people about poverty and injustice the conversation usually turns to what we can do, which then includes words like “but if I knew what to do I’d do it” or “if there was something that would really make a difference I would do it.” And we’d often be right – finding out possible solutions is usually not straight forward, but that doesn’t mean we can just do nothing. So I hope this series of posts may share things we can all do. These will rarely just be my ideas and thoughts, but will rather use the internet and blogging for what it is good at – sharing ideas and resources. The posts will point to other people’s ideas and organisations actions, as well as sharing different tools for action. Poverty and the environment will probably be the main themes…but we’ll see what comes up.
