International Community

It is important to maintain connections to a wider, international movement and so help empower the local members by showing them that there are many more people in the world struggling with similar challenges and hopes. International cooperation can also be a great help in developing and enriching the local community.

It is important for people to realize that they are not alone in their struggles, that they are part of a greater whole. And while it is essential to develop your ideas locally, based on your particular circumstances, many people in other places do things that can inspire your collective work and help you to develop new ideas.

It is commonplace for similar initiatives to network and communicate internationally, so make sure to take a look around and ask others for interesting initiatives and movements.
