How do communities set the political agenda? And how do they make sure that local actions feed bigger global movements? On this episode of In Difference, I'm joined by Prof Inés Pousadela from CIVICUS, a global alliance of civil society organisations and activists dedicated to strengthening citizen action and civil society around the world. Inés shares insights on how creating progress often begins with reframing situations and avoiding camouflage strategies by confronting issues head on. We also discuss the role of information and social media in supporting people to exchange their experiences and unite to address urgent local needs. Our conversations uncovers how social movements shape our society and ultimately change our perspective on what's possible.
