SUMMARY:Transition Neighborhoods Workshop - Neighborhood Organizing for Resilient Green Cities
DESCRIPTION:Two days after the Climate March in September\, the beta launch of Transition Neighborhoods took place in NYC. Riding the crest of a wave of climate change activism\, many New Yorkers came to explore how to keep the momentum going. 19 attendees\, almost half of the 45 people in the room\, expressed an interest in initiating a Transition project in their neighborhood. Transition is a global community organizing response to climate change\, resource depletion and financial instability. \nThere are 1\,100 plus Transition groups in 44 countries with 16 national hubs that have emerged to serve these groups. In the U.S. 151 Transition initiatives have formed with 100 more in formation. It’s time for New York City to tap into the power\, creativity\, and collective genius of this global grassroots network. \nIt starts with a series of small group meetings in which friends and neighbors go through chapters of a guidebook. They strengthen their sense of place and neighborhood culture while building relationships\, promoting local food\, and mapping their neighborhood’s current state of resiliency. The Transition Neighborhoods Prequel shows how to coalesce a group of friends and neighbors\, and get a resilience initiative up and running in your community. In this highly interactive workshop\, we’ll walk through the Prequel using small group scenarios and role playing\, and explore the first chapters of the guidebook. We’ll work through NYC-specific challenges\, with lots of time for questions and answers. Facilitated by Pamela Boyce Simms\, Lead Trainer\, Transition US and the Mid-Atlantic Transition Hub. \nNYC Transition Hub website: www.transitionnyc.org  \nFor more information about the Transition USA network\, please visit http://www.transitionus.org/ \nContact NYC Transition Hub at transition.nyc.hub@gmail.com \n
