Joining the dots between grassroots movements, communities, campaigns... A grassroots gathering is a one-off event run by a local group bringing together people involved in different community campaigns and social movements to learn from each other's experiences, talk about what works and what doesn't, develop networks and make alliances. There have been over a dozen of these gatherings in different parts of the country over the last eleven years and they have helped support all sorts of different campaigns and movements – campaigning against the water charges, resisting Shell in Erris, campaigning against cuts, supporting women's right to choose, advocating for housing rights and resisting evictions, challenging neo-liberalism in the EU, campaigning against deportation and the direct provision system, creating free space for young people, fighting for environmental justice, highlighting US military use of Shannon, challenging racism and more.

Jump To Comment: 6 5 4 3 2 1We've been asked to say ... if coming by car please park in Galtymore Road, not in the cul-de-sac beside the Bosco centre which gets easily clogged.
For some people it may also make sense to park at the Red Cow park and ride and then take the LUAS as far as the Drimnagh stop.
Here's the provisional programme for the Gathering.
