Abstract

Workshop The Albert Einstein Institution

Learn the skills and methods needed for nonviolent political change from the people who trained the leaders of the Egyptian, Burmese, and Georgian revolutions, among many others. Jamila Raqib, Executive Director of The Albert Einstein Institution leads a workshop in the Rothko Chapel with extensive opportunity for dialogue and networking; lunch is available for purchase from Cuchara. The Albert Einstein Institution was founded by Dr. Gene Sharp in 1983 to advance the study and use of strategic nonviolent action in conflicts throughout the world. It has been responsible for the translation and dissemination of some of the most influential texts on nonviolent action, including Dr. Sharp’s From Dictatorship to Democracy, which have been studied among resistance movements worldwide.
