Arthur Schopenhauer

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.

Ricardo Levins Morales

If you give me a fish you have fed me for a day. If you teach me to fish then you have fed me until the river is contaminated or the shoreline seized for development. But if you teach me to organise then, whatever the challenge, I can join together with my peers and we will fashion our own solution.

Movement Building Center

Movement builders constantly engage core allies, the public, and people in positions of power to address systemic problems and promote alternative visions or solutions. Movement building can strengthen and provide direction during peak movement moments.  In quieter times, movement building plays a crucial role in nurturing leadership, consciousness, and infrastructure.  Movement building is a developmental process that depends on opportunity and conditions.  It includes the historic moment of a fully active social movement, as well as the long-term process that led to it.

Charlotte Ryan, ‘Rhyming Hope and History’ 2005

Individuals may be silently or vocally disenchanted with their reality, many complain to friends and co-workers. They dream of other possibilities but can enter the political process proactively only when they form a collective actor; an organisation sharing values, mission and strategies. Without an organisation, individual impact on political discourse is limited.
