Online People's Assembly Facilitator Training With Caroline and Julian
Although we know in-person training and opportunities to practice are ideal, we hope that we can help you feel a bit more confident about facilitating or get another local group member trained up to do it with you.
Please forward this on to whoever in your region you feel would be interested.
We will be running these monthly along with regional in-person training, so please take whatever support you need.

Hi Joe, another clarification... this is an online training, to do an in-person people's assembly, yes? Here in the U.S., in Massachusetts, some of us are designing create an online people's assembly. I'm sure that a lot from this online training will still be valuable, even if it is oriented toward an in-person assembly.
Also... we are planning to use a modified Empathy Circle approach, for the conversation within the small groups in the online People's Assembly. As in, having each person who wants to speak reflect back what the previous speaker said, before taking a turn. The intention is to support the "three pillars" of radical inclusivity, active listening, and trust. Your thoughts?

Hi Rosa, an "online people's assembly" sounds an exciting development. Is it intended to include consideration of climate emergency?

Hi Rosa, please note I've added a link for the event for people to register

Hi Phil, this particular assembly is being called for some internal work... XR Massachusetts wants to give some feedback to XR National on a few different restructuring proposals that have been floating about. So it won't be a decision-making assembly, but an input-gathering assembly.

I was looking forward to attending but could not make it.
Was the call recorded? would love to see it.
Also, why were there two steps to signing up? ie the eventbrite sign up? was it to restrict attendance?
for easy access, just adding the zoom url to the Facebook event or here makes it easy to take part.. I know someone else that didn't know they had to sign up on Eventbrite and was not able to go because they couldn't find the zoom room.

Hi Edwin
Great to hear your interest and enthusiam!
We intentionally made it through eventbrite to give people the pre-work and collect email addresses. We want everyone on the call to have read the People's Assembly script and we provide a link in the follow-up email from eventbrite. We give the zoom details in the same email. So we are not looking for last minute sign ups.
We have decided not to circulate the audio as it doesnt include the exercises in break-out rooms which are a key part of the process.
The next zoom is coming shortly and the facebook eventbrite link will get posted shortly
Take care!
