The Radical Independence Campaign invites supporters to join a conference aimed at finding a way through the movement’s current impasse.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Break the Impasse: Towards Independence<\/span><\/h2>\n

Saturday, 21 October 2023 11:00 – 16:00\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Location: The Renfield Training and Conference Centre Glasgow<\/span><\/p>\n

260 Bath Street Glasgow G2 4JP\u00a0 (Journey Planner here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The movement for Scottish self-determination is at an impasse \u2014 we are stuck. The\u00a0Radical Independence Campaign<\/a>\u00a0invites independence supporters and the wider Scottish left to join us at a conference in Glasgow on Saturday 21st October to help find a way to break the impasse.<\/p>\n

This grassroots-focused event is the first in-person RIC conference since the pandemic and follows an online conference in 2021 which attracted hundreds of participants.<\/p>\n

Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

The conference will begin with speakers from a range of invited organisations, including the Scottish Greens and SNP Socialists, offering their views on the way forward, followed by breakout discussions in which participants can discuss their response to the speakers.<\/p>\n

After lunch, there will be a series of participatory workshops on issues including climate justice, trade unions and independence, and how we get organised at a local level.<\/p>\n

The day will conclude with a plenary session aimed at establishing concrete next steps.<\/p>\n

More information about the programme, including speakers and workshops, will follow.<\/p>\n

Get involved<\/strong><\/p>\n

We wish to create a friendly forum to contribute to a discussion on where Scottish politics and the independence movement finds itself now, and to explore the options and strategic implications of the proposals coming from different parts of the movement.<\/p>\n

We want to have a good conference with lively discussions that produce clear decisions and commitments \u2014 in other words, a well thought-out strategy and plan of action to take forward RIC and the movement for Scottish self-determination.<\/p>\n

For more information or to help us organise the conference, please email contact@ric.scot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
