Climate Justice & Aviation
Communication Training for Activists and Campaigners
Do you want to be part of a movement for a fair and green mobility, or boost campaigns on climate justice and aviation?
Would you like to be part of a global network of campaigners and activists spreading the word?
Do you want to reflect on how we talk about aviation, refuting narratives that impede change?
Would you like to learn more about the ecological and social impacts of aviation, effective policy measures and a just transition of the aviation sector?
Do you want to counter the industry’s greenwashing strategies?
If your answer is “yes”, here is your opportunity to become a Stay Grounded multiplier!
There is no prior knowledge required. The training is partly based on our guide “Common Destination“.
You will be part of a multiplier network with many possibilities to exchange and learn from each other and receive active support to spread the word about aviation and climate justice yourself (e.g. in workshops, talks, actions, etc.).
You will also be connected to the global Stay Grounded network of more than 200 organisations aiming to reduce aviation and fight for a fair and green mobility system.
Since we currently don’t have any dedicated funding for this training, we would really appreciate a donation – pay as you wish. Apart from that, just you bring your time, your motivation and your own experiences to share! 🙂
⇢ people engaged in local struggles against airport expansions or campaigning for a fairer mobility system, looking for effective ways to counter the aviation industry’s narratives
⇢ people interested in climate communication, wanting to reflect and expand on their framing of aviation
⇢ people looking for a way to get active on aviation together with like-minded multipliers
We are looking for people who are interested in spreading the knowledge provided in this training to as many people as possible. By participating in the training, you will become part of an active multiplier network and be supported in giving workshops and talks, or organise actions and events (depending on your capacity). You will be in touch with like-minded people around the world working for a fairer mobility system!
The training has six modules. You should at least participate in Module 1, and another one of your choosing. However, we very much encourage and recommend you to participate in all modules to get the full picture.
The modules will consist of a mix of shared reflections, informative presentations and interactive exercises. If necessary, your travel and accommodation costs to in-person trainings can be (partially) covered.
Module 1: Aviation and Climate Justice
Module 2: Greenwashing
Module 3: Just Transition
Module 4: Grounding Organisations
Module 5: Policy Measures to Degrow Aviation
You will learn about the existing policies at national and international levels, as well as policy proposals (e.g. frequent flier levy, caps and limits of flights, kerosene tax, etc.) actually degrowing the aviation sector.
We will then discuss examples of successfully implemented policies that might become a model for comprehensive international measures.
Module 6: Being a Multiplier
