How the various Actions roles fit together
This diagram shows how the various roles involved in Actions work together and the typical journey a new volunteer would take in getting gradually more involved.
A version that allows you to zoom and pan around the diagram in more detail is available here.
-
Starting in the centre, we see the various ways you might be recruited.
-
You may not be able to phyiscally attend events and so opt for Home/Offsite roles.
-
To start with you might simply turn up to an event and act as an Action Attendee.
-
You may choose to become more engaged as a Non-Arrestable Action Participant. Note by non-arrestable, we mean that it is not your intention to be arrested. We cannot guarantee police response to our actions, however many actions are designed so that arrests are very unlikely.
-
Once you have gained more experience, and/or been vouched for by someone known in the Actions teams, there are a group of roles that do carry a higher risk of arrest. Arrestable Action Participant, Overall Action Planning, Action Support Planning.
-
Alternatively you may wish to consider some of the Street Support Roles that turn the Action plans into reality: Action Support, Media & Messaging, or Outreach roles.
As XR is radically inclusive anyone can go straight into any role except the pink ones which require prior experience and/or security verification.
