In the workshop Good Praxis — From Individual Desire To Collective Action of the Studium Generale of the Royal Academy of Art for the Joint Research Day 2024, I organised a mutual aid workshop on collective creativity.
As not everyone can participate in blockades, strikes or blowing up pipelines, mutual aid gives us agency to organise ourselves to meet the needs that are not being met by people in power.
Inspired by artist Toni Cade Bambara, who said: ‘𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦‘, the workshop will teach students a method to go from individual desire to collective action.
