ACTionism

‘If we can imagine it, together we can make it’

ACTionism is the art of finding your people and taking action - together.

‘ACTionism, is rooted in the fundamental insight that - if and only if we act together - we all have agency, and in what we can do if we insist on starting from where we are, finding the others, and building that agency together. It is about exploring what we can do without asking permission, or expecting anyone to do it for us. It's about building the world we want to see, from where we are, using what we have - and maybe then demanding that existing power structures come in behind us’ Jon Alexandar

Circular, resourceful, cheeky, serious
