Unfortunately, Melanie Joy's workshop "How vegans can prevent and manage infighting" had to be canceled short-term. However, we are incredibly thankful to Martin Smedjeback, who has offered to jump in short-term with two great shorter workshops.

How to talk to meat eaters
Discussions between meat eaters and vegans can easily lead to conflict and frustration. But it doesn't have to be so. In this workshop, we practice, through discussions and role-plays, how to effectively advocate for animals so that the meat eaters feel heard and are ready to challenge their previous beliefs. By learning from psychological research and our own experience, we can find better ways of communicating our animal rights message.

Strategies for animal liberation
It's tricky to find out what methods are most effective to reach animal liberation. And it can also be difficult to decide what you, as an individual, should do for animals. In this workshop, you get to discuss with others what you think of specific methods to reach a vegan world.
