Price: Free

Especially suited for new rebels

This welcome session is for new rebels to find out what Extinction Rebellion is about.

This presentation lasts about an hour to an hour and a half. We will cover the following topics:

  • The DNA of Extinction Rebellion (in other words, what we stand for, how we interact with each other, when someone can call themselves part of XR, and who can start a group)

  • Healthy motivation (in other words, how to avoid burnout from activism)

  • Possible choices (in other words, how you can get involved in Extinction Rebellion, including small tasks, participating in actions, and helping to organize behind the scenes)


The goal is that by the end of the presentation, you'll know exactly what your next step could be. There will also be time for questions, and we’re happy to help you personally if you’re stuck on anything.

You don't need to sign up for the welcome session itself. On the same day and at the same location, there will also be an XR community kitchen. If you'd like to join for dinner, you do need to sign up.
