4h
Given the magnitude of the major environmental, social, and economic challenges, we have three choices. Listen without feeling challenged. React by shouting injustice but without taking concrete action. Be indignant and set out to change things. Which of these options applies to you?
Hundreds of millions of people on all continents have understood the scope of their power. Because yes, our power is powerful. These committed people are literally transforming our society. Citizens’ victories, seemingly impossible, are multiplying. Governments and companies are thus called upon to act. This workshop aims to take action in the concrete exercise of citizen power. It makes it possible to become aware of the power of each one as an economic actor and citizen.
