Online meeting of the Care Revolution network on 18 November.

Our biannual online network meeting will take place again on 18 November. "Breaking out of crises together" could be the motto of this meeting.

A lot has happened at Care Revolution since our last meeting in April, and next year's tenth anniversary is casting its shadow. The Solidarisch Sorgen association is now registered and has been able to set up a coordination centre, which is also helpful for the activities in the Care Revolution network. There is a lot to be encouraged by in the care movement, from small local actions to the successes of the hospital movement and the desire of various social movements to act together. However, this often seems frighteningly powerless in the face of the climate catastrophe, the successes of the AfD, the continuation of wars in Ukraine and elsewhere in the world and also the pressure that care workers are under to such a great extent.

Accordingly, our main topic is: What tasks and hurdles are facing the care movement and the Care Revolution network within it, and how can we tackle them together? What gives cause for hope? We hope that we can shed light on these questions from all aspects of care work. Our colourful composition will stand us in good stead here. We want to utilise it! That is why we are hoping for many registrations.

We also want to take a more concrete look: What are we planning for 2024, when Care Revolution will be ten years old? How can we become more visible as a network? There are so many of us who are active locally in regional groups, in various co-operating groups and as individuals. We can organise, write, discuss, we have a wide variety of contacts and experiences. We want to bring them together productively.

The network meeting will start on 18 November at 10:00 am. Here is the planned programme:
10:00 Welcome
10:30 Reports from the groups, working groups and the network's co-circle
11:15 Break
