Ziel Was wir erreichen wollen

Eine Welt, in welcher der unausweichlich anstehende Wandel trotz der vielfältigen Herausforderungen (Massenaussterben, Klimakatastrophe, Zusammenbruch von Systemen, Migration etc.) friedlich und gerecht verläuft.

Aktivitäten Wie wir dorthin kommen wollen

Als CAN setzen wir uns ein für eine florierende und aktive Zivilgesellschaft als ein entscheidender Faktor in Zeiten multipler Krisen und großer erforderlicher Veränderungen. Wir fördern zivilgesellschaftliches Engagement und Beteiligung auf zweierlei Pfaden: Zum Einen schaffen wir niedrigschwellige Angebote, um Menschen aus der breiten Bevölkerung zur Mitgestaltung unserer Gesellschaft einzuladen, auch jene, die wenig Zugang zu demokratischen Prozessen haben. Zum Anderen unterstützen wir bereits aktive Menschen und Gruppen, die sich für eine nachhaltige, gerechtere und friedlichere Welt einsetzen durch Trainings zu Themen wie Community Organizing, Public Narrative, gewaltfreier Kommunikation, regenerativem Engagement, kollaborativer Entscheidungsfindung, Konfliktkompetenz oder emergenter Strategie, aber auch durch Prozessbegleitung, Coaching, Moderation, und das Schaffen von Räumen für Regeneration und Vernetzung. 

Beteiligung Wie du dich einbringen kannst

Um das herauszufinden, müssen wir uns erst einmal genauer kennen lernen ;) Denn es gibt vielfältige Möglichkeiten, sich im Umfeld von CAN einzubringen, die alle sehr individuell und von den Bedürfnissen, Fähigkeiten und Wünschen der Personen selbst abhängig sind. Aber hier sind ein paar Wege, um mit uns loszulegen:

  • Komm zu einer unserer Veranstaltungen!
  • Komm zu unserem monatlichen Stammtisch in Wien, an jedem 2. Donnerstag des Monats. Das ist eine tolle Möglichkeit uns über CAN, deine Interessen und mögliche Überschneidungen auszutauschen.
  • Wenn du Teil einer Initiative oder Gruppe bist, die sich in irgendeiner Form für sozialen Wandel einsetzt, würden wir uns freuen, dich kennenzulernen und zu sehen, ob wir eure Bemühungen in irgendeiner Weise unterstützen können. Melde dich per Email um einen Termin für ein Gespräch auszumachen
  • Du kannst dich auch zu unserem monatlichen Newsletter anmelden oder uns auf Signal oder Instagram folgen.
  • Falls du wenig Zeit hast, aber unsere Arbeit trotzdem unterstützen willst, ist eine Spende eine großartige Möglichkeit. Finde alle Infos darüber, wie du spenden kannst hier.

Anmerkungen Was wir sonst noch sagen wollen

 

Kommende Veranstaltungen

Many of us had bad experiences and all of us heard stories of harmful and abusive ways of practicing leadership.  Of domination based hierarchies that we want to leave behind. For many it’s a loaded topic, it can evoke discomfort or even fear. Striving to work in a non-hierarchical way seems appealing, but comes with its own challenges. Someone always takes on more responsibility, has more experience or overview, or is left alone with doing the crucial work. It seems like it’s impossible to get rid of hierarchies. But not addressing power dynamics connected to different approaches to leadership amplifies their detrimental effects. In this workshop you will: Identify which skills you want to focus on developing in this moment Reflect on your own experience with leadership.Share experiences and observations with others.Learn about the helpful approaches to leadership that enable you to take responsibility for enabling your group to take purposeful action. This workshop is part of a series of 5 workshops over 5 weeks.

In civic spaces resources are often scarce. This is not only true for money, but mainly also people's time. Finding time for reflecting on past actions, taking care of emotions that come up in relation to the work, addressing tensions in the team, planning and prioritizing work for the closest future, learning and passing on skills and taking important decisions can often be difficult. This can lead to frustration, chaos, escalating conflict, people withdrawing or dropping out and at worst an initiative in paralysis. In this workshop you will: Learn about 5 essential modes of spending time for a well working, collaboratively led team Reflect on where your initiative is in relation to this and what needs to happen next, to implement some of the learnings from this workshop.Learn how to create reliable structure and rhythm that makes collaboration flow with less effort This workshop is part of a series of 5 workshops over 5 weeks.

People who take responsibility for their initiatives often end up getting stuck with more work that they can sustainably do. At the same time, while caring a lot about empowering others, it can be challenging to find time for onboarding and mentoring when work is urgent. This can lead to feeling pressured, left alone and overwhelmed and overstepping one’s own boundaries. In this workshop you will: Reflect on where you can practice the skill of mentorshipLearn about essential principles for creating an empowering environmentLearn from each other by hearing the challenges and learnings of othersLearn tools for holding someone's learning process This workshop is part of a series of 5 workshops over 5 weeks.

Civic initiatives are for the most part fueled by the personal motivation and passion of their members. When everyone is deeply invested in the cause and their actions, encountering disagreement or receiving challenging feedback can often feel quite severe. Often this leads to a culture of not addressing disagreement at all, where it’s extremely difficult to transform tensions and learn from conflicts. In a different scenario disagreement gets addressed in ways that put further emotional charge into the space and make working together challenging.In this workshop you will: Reflect on where you currently stand on the road to having a lively culture of disagreeing and giving each other feedbackLearn about and practice a simple pattern for giving and receiving feedback from a position of leadership Learn some principles for how to help your initiative to develop its own feedback culture This workshop is part of a series of 5 workshops over 5 weeks.

Many of us are engaged in civic initiatives out of a host of different motivations: responding to urgent need, contributing to social change, being connected with like-minded people, learning new skills. With this mix of motivations it can often be difficult to be clear about the goals we pursue and the pathways for reaching them. Unclear narratives about “what we are about” make enrollment of new members difficult, and taking decisions about what needs to be done next, near impossible.In this workshop you will: Reflect on where you can create opportunities for your team to practice strategizing nextLearn the basic ingredients for an effective strategyReflect on why setting goals mattersTry on the lens of “strategizing as a skill to practice”This workshop is part of a series of 5 workshops over 5 weeks.
