[Cc-fests&FR] [climatecampprocess] [Fwd: workshops at big green gathering

[Ben Hart]

Ok then..

Looks like we need a crash brain storm about what we want to happen. James
has already done some stirling work looking at an application for Glasto
(See below). I reckon we should thrash out what we'd like to do at the BGG
using this as a starting point.

Personally I think something like James' bigger idea below- using one big
marquee and organising it like one of the neighbourhoods at the camp:

Vegan Kitchen- making lunch and dinner for donations.
Direct Action Training sessions in the afternoon.
Talks/ Discussions based on the different themes of Climate Camp this year
after dinner, followed by some films (and maybe music?)

Not sure a sauna is needed though!!

I think a lot of talks/ training sessions will have already been produced
for the G20 event, and I'm sure structures will be being re-obtained in
preparation for the convergence. And it's obvious that there's plenty of
people who would like to volunteer to provide stuff to the space, which
could also be a good meeting point for lots of people if you make it
friendly enough.

If we create the space I'm sure it'll work fantastically...

What do people think?
