Titus Alexander and UpRiser Sahera Abbasi
UpRisers took part in a community campaign workshop with Titus Alexander, Head of Campaigning at Novas Scarman on 15 October 2009.
Titus Alexander has a long-track record of campaigning and has been one of the chief advocates for the development of campaigning skills. He recently launched ‘Campaigning is OK’, short guide to help community and voluntary organisations develop skills and support for effective campaigning.
UpRisers got advice from Titus Alexander on the development of their community campaigns, including on clarifying their campaign objectives, deciding on actions and identifying sources of support.
Zin Derfoufi, an UpRising graduate, also took part in the learning session to share his experience of campaigning on issues including civil liberties, community cohesion and race relations.
