Our backgrounds and interests are diverse ranging from international solidarity work in Mexico and Argentina, environmental and anti-globalisation campaigns, environmental and social change projects in Spain, and theatre, media and music projects in the UK.

Our origins are in ‘DISSENT!' (see http://www.dissent.org.uk), a network organising resistance and building awareness about the Group of 8 nations who are holding their annual meeting in Scotland in July 2005.

• Getting to know the group and its context beforehand;
  
• Working with existing experiences and different levels of knowledge within groups;
• Finding out what groups want to achieve from educational sessions;
•  Stimulating debate and free thinking rather than dictating facts;
  
• Helping with future action plans.

Our sessions use a mixture of visual aids, interactive games and workshops, videos, and hand-outs. We are compiling this material on CD Rom for groups to use for themselves. We are also keen to offer social events comprising perhaps a benefit gig for a local cause, pub quizzes, karaoke, bingo, DJ's etc.
We are keen to hold these workshops in a variety of locations - community centres, workplaces, youth centres, 6th form colleges, schools, campaign groups.

  If you are interested in hosting a workshop from Intelligent Rage, get in touch.
