Hello, welcome to the first episode of Activist HQ’s weekly podcast where we will learn a little bit more about activism each episode. As an introduction, Activist HQ is a network initiative by the Tangency Foundation, a nonprofit activism literacy organization which is entirely volunteer-run. We work hard to develop free resources to help empower stakeholders to make change happen. For more information on Activist HQ or the Tangency Foundation, please visit ActivistHQ.org, where you can learn about our free consultations, workshops, and resources for advocacy and activism training.

In Today's episode we will be taking a look at "Agents of Change and Nonviolent Action" by Hardy Merriman, President and CEO of the International Center for Nonviolent Conflict. Merriman holds nearly 20 years of experience in the field of civil resistance, leading activism workshops and working to train the next generation of change makers.

If you have any questions for us, we would love for you to submit them to our team. We look forward to answering them! Our goal is to develop this into a valuable resource for activists around the world to discuss and share the insights of their unique experiences to advance the interests of stakeholders everywhere.
