When do we lay down approaches that no longer work? Can we re-envision witness so it uplifts us, sustains our involvement, and becomes more appealing to others? This session offers inspiration and space for discernment within a loving community.
Sometimes, we choose tactics that feel familiar—such as a vigil, march, or writing to an MP—without considering whether they truly serve our purposes or meet our needs.
The norms of society are causing harm; perhaps the time has come to think outside the box. How can we use creativity, humour, and fresh perspectives to highlight what is old, broken, and no longer serves us? And could this refocusing engage and enthuse others to join us in our witness?
This will be an exploratory, participatory space, beginning with examples to inspire our discussions in breakout rooms and plenary sessions.
