How *not* to save the world with Anthea Lawson: Purity-politics and knowing-better

A breakfast webinar with Anthea Lawson to explore some of the hidden stories that can get in the way of building effective movements.

Anthea Lawson’s new book, How Not To Save The World: Doing Good Without Annoying Everyone, is an exploration of how to deal with the saviour complexes that many activists hold. The book identifies hidden narratives that can underpin attempts to do good – and offers ways of reframing them.

'The stories in this book show how we can build bridges in order to work together for the world that we want.' Brian Eno

'Read it and weep, laugh, cringe... it might bring more compassion and togetherness in a broken world.' Dr. Gail Bradbrook, co-founder of Extinction Rebellion

This webinar will include a presentation from Anthea, who will be cross-questioned by Rupert Read, plus opportunities for personal reflection and small-group conversation, and a full Q&A. Bring pen and paper!

Anthea Lawson is a long-time friend of the Climate Majority Project, and a widely renowned author on activism.

Please note: our breakfast webinars open at around 8.15. Feel free to bring your breakfast, tea and coffee — we'll start promptly at 8.30am.
