'Constructing Change' podcast from rabble.ca features online resources from its Activist Toolkit

| February 10, 2012

rabble.ca has launched a new podcast for people who want to engage in their communities. The podcast, Constructing Change: Tools from the activist toolkit, features tools from rabble's Activist Toolkit wiki, interviews with local activists, mini-docs on social change and more.

rabble.ca publisher Kim Elliott says, "There is a wealth of educational and community activist resources out there. The Activist Toolkit drew those tools together, and the Constructing Change podcast gives listeners a chance to learn how to find those online resources, and to hear the voices of the people who are engaged with the issues."

The Activist Toolkit is a wiki-style section of the rabble site that features software tools, workshop outlines and how-to guides from non-profits, unions and grassroots activists around the world. It can be found at: http://rabble.ca/toolkit.

"The show moves beyond the collaborative nature of the toolkit wiki to explore the stories and connections behind the resources in the Activist Toolkit," reports Constructing Change host and producer Steffanie Pinch. Check out the first episode right here.
