he Washington Fair Trade Coalition is hosting a TPP Regional Activation Summit on Saturday, April 16th in Tacoma. Those already involved in TPP organizing, those who want to learn how to effectively take action – help build a statewide network to defeat the TPP!

Groups will be joining us from all over the WA state, and possibly even Oregon, for a day-long training to share experiences, build up their action toolkits, and strengthen connections in the region.

The workshops and tracks will include how to talk about TPP, how to use visuals in activism, how to work with media, strategic escalation, and time for groups to exchange ideas and experiences, and plan for local action.

Arrival time 9:30 AM, programs start at 10:00 AM. We plan to wrap up at 6:00 PM. Breakfast and Lunch included.

If you are coming from far away and need a place to stay Friday night, or if you live around Tacoma and can offer a place for people to stay, please email gillian@washingtonfairtrade.org !
