Events

Our online event for Scottish campaigners will include updates on our campaign to cancel Zambia’s debt, and also the latest on the People’s Vaccine campaign presented by Global Justice Now campaigners Daniel Willis and Alena Ivanova.

Artist and activist Donna Riddington, who has a background in community art and activism and has also been involved in the People’s Vaccine campaign, will run a workshop talking about how to campaign creatively. And we’ve also made sure there is time set aside to meet other campaigners, hear from our local groups and plan local campaign action with people from our region of Scotland for the coming year.
