Orientation and Non-Cooperation Theory

  • Location will be shared upon registration (map)

Join us for this special offering of our Orientation and Non-Cooperation trainings.

Orientation is the place to learn about the attacks DC is facing right now, our strategy to defeat them, and our organizing structures that will make it possible.

Non-Cooperation Theory + Practice is Free DC's advanced training intensive on the key skills involved in effective non-cooperation. This half-day training will teach you what non-cooperation looks like on an individual level, a mass level, and how other movements have used these tactics effectively. Please note: you must attend an orientation prior to joining a non-cooperation training.
