Anxiety and Action - A handbook on political organising for systems change

Many sources of anxiety arise as a result of systemic factors that feel beyond our control e.g. climate change, housing, biosphere collapse, inequality, lack of health services. If we take the “system” to mean the political system, we find ourselves with some power.  In a democracy, we can change the system by engaging in political action. Download our Anxiety and Action Handbook to find out how.  

The Handbook has been incorporated into Trinity's Education for Sustainable Development curriculum. Can you incorporate the Handbook into your work? Healthy Trinity, working within Trinity Sustainability is looking for other champions who will incorporate political action for systems change into their teaching, research, operations and/or activism. Contact health.promotion@tcd.ie for more details.
