DAY 1: THE PARTY
Seamlessly weaving together presentations on creative campaigning, facilitated mingling and a dance party - SERIOUS ISSUES is a high impact social gathering. A one of a kind event strategically designed to attract new audiences, break down barriers and build community.
DAY 2: THE TRANING
An innovative workshop designed to help engaged youth unleash their creative spirits while remaining rooted in sound strategy. By reimagining strategic planning as a highly creative process we create an experience that is part participation, part revelation. The curriculum for this session has been uniquely tailored in partnership with SYC.
The Sierra Youth Coalition, in partnership with TruthFool Communications, presents the National Campus Tour; a cross country training tour featuring a Serious Issues networking and social event followed by a 1-day training workshop on creative campaigning and action presented by Sean Devlin of TruthFool Communications.
TruthFool Communications is a boutique creative and strategic social change agency that works to develop innovative and effective campaigns, media and workshops for a variety of prominent organizations, including: Greenpeace, CUPE, Climate Action Network, Vision Vancouver, LeadNow.ca and The Yes Men.
“Sean walked us through the moving and powerful history of creative activism, showcasing successful tactics that we're used by grassroots movements to positively transform our world. Ranging from how Canadian women won the right to vote to youth successfully challenging Slobodan Milošević tyranny in Serbia, Sean passes on the stories, skills and hope needed to strategically and creatively build campaigns to challenge current power structures.”
