Recruitment and Retention 101

Recruitment and Retention 101 is a 1.5 hour interactive workshop to teach you the theory, best practices, tools, and frameworks that can be used to build thriving teams where community and capacity grow over time.

There will be time for Q&A. Please register to receive the Zoom link.

Growing our movements and building successful campaigns that can win requires effective recruitment of new members and retention of members into an existing campaign, project, or structure. When done right, intentional and thoughtful recruitment and retention practices can help to deepen relationships, satisfaction, and trust, while growing campaigns for maximum impact.

This workshop will be run by Amanda Havey-Sánchez (she/her), from The Climate Justice Organizing HUB. Amanda is a Latina Toronto-based organizer, activist-researcher, and educator. The daughter of a climate scientist and a teacher, Amanda was called into the climate justice movement through working on her campus fossil fuel divestment campaign at the University of Toronto in 2015. Since then, she has had the opportunity to take part in community-based and justice-focused campaigns and projects across Canada, the US, India, and France. She is currently completing her PhD at the University of Toronto, on the social and political life of youth climate justice organizing in Canada.
