On Sunday, May 26th, the Welcome Day will take place in Amsterdam! There will be two events on this day.
First is the Introduction:
Are you a new rebel eager to learn more about how XR works? Do you want to know what circles exist and what they do? Would you like to take the next step within XR but don't know how yet? Or do you want to meet other new or experienced rebels? Then the Introduction is definitely for you. Here, you'll quickly get to know new people and feel more at home within the climate movement. The Introduction starts at 13:00 and ends at 17:00.
Second is the Integration Workshop:
Do you enjoy interacting with people? Do you want to help people find their way within XR? Do you like to make people feel comfortable? Do you want to help this rapidly growing movement by providing motivated rebels? Then the Integration Workshop is perfect for you! Here, you'll learn quickly how integration works within XR. The Integration Workshop starts at 15.00 and ends at 17:00.
Both will take place at Frederik Hendrikstraat 111, Amsterdam. After the workshops, there will be a moment to mingle with all the new rebels and there is the opportunity to have diner!
It's important to sign up for the workshops and also for the food, so the kitchen knows how many people to cook for. The deadline for signing for diner is 22nd of May.
Please sign up and bring a smartphone or laptop with you.
This day will be in Dutch. Unfortunately, the space is not accessible for wheel-chair users. The
Heading for Extinction lectures, action clinics, and many action trainings take place in a location without stairs (namely Sering on Rhôneweg 6), but they are not the same as this welcome day. If you need specific accommodations to make such a day accessible to you, please send an email to
xr.amsterdam@protonmail.com and we will try to organize such an introduction.
