Free Skool and Skillsharing
One of the most interesting features of convergence week will be the opportunities for anti-capitalists to learn from each other and share skills. The Anti-Capitalist Convergence is helping organize these workshops and skillshares, as well as providing spaces for these learning events to happen. If you are interested in facilitating a skillshare, training, workshop, or group discussion, please send us you the title of your event, a description, and your preferences for days and times. Our volunteers will set match up your request with the available spaces.
The most current free skool list is located at the Welcome Center.
Register your workshop, training or skillshare.
