SUMMARY:Webinar - IN ANOTHER'S LAND: War and Militarization
DESCRIPTION:WEBINAR II In Another’s Land: War and Militarization\nDate: 5 February 2025\nExploring dynamics of war\, militarization and the influence of private companies and business interests in contemporary geopolitics; how it impacts world peace and how nonviolent movements organise in the midst of war. \nNCEJN’s Co Director Rania Masri is one of the three speakers. \n— \nWEBINAR II: Exploring dynamics of war\, militarization and the influence of private companies and business interests in contemporary geopolitics; how it impacts world peace and how nonviolent movements organise in the midst of war. \nSocial justice movements worldwide navigate a complex terrain\, facing multiple forms of violence; from war to oppression\, surveillance to discrimination and beyond. How do people organise and resist in such realities? How can they succeed? \nThis six-part webinar series invites activists\, scholars\, policymakers\, and the public to explore the complex roots\, manifestations and dynamics of violence\, and the transformative role of social movements in acheiving justice and building peace. \nStrategic and sustained non-violent action has proven to be one of the most powerful tools for confronting state and institutional violence and addressing the underlying conditions that fuel conflict and oppression. Understanding the conditions that often lead to violence\, and the many forms in which it manifests can help us to de-escalate and dismantle. \nEach webinar will deliberate on the roots and manifestations of violence\, and the strategic approaches that movements employ to resist and organize. Through the course of these deliberations\, we aim to explore the practical and strategic dimensions of non-violent action\, learn how to support and amplify these efforts\, fostering broader solidarity and systemic transformation towards more just and peaceful societies. \n  \nRead about the other webinars here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: “Corporate Takeover of Rural America: Fighting Agricultural Preemption and Big Business Influence”
DESCRIPTION:Register: Join State of Innovation (SiX) for a webinar on “Corporate Takeover of Rural America: Fighting Agricultural Preemption and Big Business Influence”. Friday February 28\, 11 AM \n  \nIn these earliest days of the second Trump Administration\, we’re seeing oligarchs given free rein in the federal government like never before. For decades\, big corporate interests have built their power by capturing state legislatures in resource-rich majority-rural states – boosting profits at the expense of local communities. A key tool in their playbook? Preemption bills—broad measures that block laws\, ordinances\, and regulations on critical issues. These corporate-backed bills\, once tested in states\, are reshaping policymaking at every level from local governments to Congress\, threatening rural communities. Join experts and policymakers to explore 2025 trends in corporate-backed preemption on agriculture\, food\, and rural policy. Learn how corporations are cementing control in state legislatures by targeting rural communities and discover strategies to help policymakers partner with rural communities push back against agribusiness\, chemical\, energy\, and extremist interests while building alternatives to these abusive preemption policies.
