EDGE Webinar: Organizing around the emergence of new systems

The COVID pandemic is a clear manifestation of a systemic breakdown that evidences the many flaws and inequalities that are the root causes of the world’s growing problems (patriarchy, capitalism, anthropocentrism, etc). In this webinar, we will share our analysis on the current state of the world in order to better understand the situation we are facing from a systemic approach. More importantly, we feel it is crucial to recognize that this moment offers humanity a unique opportunity to organize, resource and uplift the work that social movements are doing all over the globe in developing an array of systemic alternatives that can be the starting point for the emergence of new systems.
