To prepare you for non-violent action, XR Nijmegen organizes monthly training sessions. Our advice is to join a training, where you will learn:

🌸 how to prepare for an XR action;
🌻 what non-violence means to XR and what non-violent tactics are;
🌸 how a simple blockade works and what joining a blockade involves;
🌻 how to ensure your mental well-being during an action;
🌸 what an affinity group is and how these groups function during actions;
🌻 how an arrest works and how to deal with police presence;
🌸 what legal consequences an action can have.

After the training you can make an informed decision about whether you want to participate in an action.

This training is a great introduction to XR. It will prepare you for actions. For a deeper understanding of the organization or for meeting other rebels, attend a welcome café or potluck. Whereas this training addresses the basic legal implications of non-violent disobedience, action-specific implications will be shared during briefings before an action. If you plan to join actions more often, a specific legal-training is recommended.
