Program Full-Description

Solidarity economy tools like co-ops and community land trusts are owned and governed by their members. How can disabled communities, and our allies, use these tools for our mutual self-help? 

Join disabled activists to hear stories of cooperation and access failures and successes, identify ways disabled knowledge of interdependence can support building an abundant world where all needs are met, and share your experiences practicing cooperation across differences.

Participants will leave with….

  • Examples of clear ways to practice inclusion and access that can be implemented right away
  • Insight into some of the experiences and perspectives of disabled and BIPOC cooperators
  • A framework for how access and inclusion are part of building solidarity economies based on the concept of mutual self-help and self-determination

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Cost

Free! Though we appreciate donations from those who can afford to do so. At PeoplesHub we are committed to communication access, radical hospitality, supporting facilitators, and making our offerings financially accessible. Donations allow us to continue offering programs like this one and pay speakers, tech support leads, interpreters, captioners, and other support staff a fair wage for their time and expertise. Like you, those who support our trainings work hard for change in their communities and have often developed the knowledge, skill and gifts that they are offering through many unpaid hours — let’s support them to be sustainable in their work and craft!
