Build campaigns that mobilise people power: a practical masterclass from theory to tactics

This masterclass will provide participants with a practical overview and some tools and approaches to building participatory, collaborative, and transformative campaigns that inspire people to act, tackle root causes, and raise money. In a practical and hands-on workshop, we’ll learn from global examples that ground the workshop in real life campaigns that have made change.

The masterclass will focus on three key areas: campaign strategy, storytelling, and deepening engagement.

 

1. Participatory, collaborative and systems-based campaigning: how to develop a strategy that puts people at the centre and tackles root causes

  • An intro to participatory, collaborative, and transformative campaigns
  • Identifying moments of strategic opportunity using a root-cause analysis

2. Narrative and storytelling: how to shift dominant narratives and motivate people to act 

  • Storytelling to shift values, beliefs, and how people understand the world
  • Crafting compelling campaign stories that motivate people to act and donate

3. Integrated campaigning and creative tactics: how to develop multilevel participatory campaigns that engage supporters on and offline in meaningful action and build power

  • The anatomy of people-powered campaigns
  • Building an engagement pyramid that deepens engagement – and raises more money!

 

Aimed at:

  • Participants who want to learn how to practically build campaigns focused around generating public action on and offline
  • Fundraisers seeking to understand how to develop integrated approaches to their work and break down silos in their organisations
  • Participants who have specific campaign ideas that they would like to collaborate with others to co-create

 

Learning outcomes:

  • How to develop campaign strategies that engage people and motivate them to take meaningful action
  • How to shift dominant narratives through storytelling
  • How to design multilevel engagement strategies and tactics that win change and raise money (even on a small budget)
