1st - 3rd November: Fearless Cities Summit

This November, the internationally acclaimed Fearless Cities summit will be coming to the UK and to South Yorkshire for the first time.

Since 2017, Fearless Cities summits have been hosted by cities and regions all over the world including Warsaw, Belgrade, New York, Brussels, Rosario (Argentina) and Valparaíso (Chile). Our South Yorkshire summit will focus on:

Reimagining Our Commons through Neighbourhoods of Care

We believe that the future we need will be a future that is based on active citizens working together at a local level and networked together regionally, nationally and globally. Citizen Network, together with Opus Independents are reaching out to community organisers, campaigners, politicians, grassroots movements, civil society organisations and those working in local and regional institutions close to home and further afield.

We’ll explore the many economic, ecological and social challenges that we face, and learn how communities are working together to:

Take care of each other
Share resources and spaces
Restore our relationship with nature and food
Tackle injustice, prejudice and racism

Please join us in Sheffield for 2 days of stimulating conversation.

This event is free - but donations are welcome - and Citizen Network, Opus Independents and the Neighbourhood Democracy Movement are very grateful to our sponsors who are helping to support the event:

Please note the Friday event will be an evening gathering for those travelling to Sheffield a day early to meet each other, and other local activists. The main summit will take place on Saturday and Sunday.
