In my experience, working to bring about a truly just, sustainable, and regenerative future has been many things: deeply meaningful, endlessly fascinating, hugely transformational, and overwhelmingly rewarding. It can also be transcendently joyful at times. Nevertheless, nobody ever said changing the world would be easy.

After nearly two decades deeply engaged in this field, the organizing model developed by the international Transition Towns Movement is still the most holistic, accessible, and effective social technology I’ve found for cultivating more resilient, equitable, sustainable, and regenerative local communities from the bottom up.

Dear friends and fellow Transitioners, I hope you’ll join me today in celebrating the launch of Transition Network International’s first-ever “evergreen” course, Transition Launch Training! This self-paced and self-directed online version of our most popular training is now available for anyone, anywhere, to take for free at any time.
