Movement Generation

"The Movement Generation Justice & Ecology Project provides in-depth information and analysis about the global ecological crisis and facilitates strategic planning for action among leading organizers from urban Bay Area organizations working for economic and racial justice in communities of color.

"The purpose of Movement Generation is to develop the strategic movement capacity of young organizational leaders 35-years old and under in the Bay Area social justice community, especially young women, LGBTQ folks and people of color. Under the leadership of founding director Zak Sinclair, the concept was built out by a planning committee including grassroots organizers, movement builders, and popular educators. Housed by SOUL (the School of Unity and Liberation) and the Movement Strategy Center, in it’s first two years Movement Generation convened more than 70 young movement leaders from more than 30 organizations into two cycles of ten-month movement strategy discussions."
