Resources from the Global Hive
The Global Hive Toolkit is designed by the Inter-Council Network to support the efforts of public mobilization practitioners working in Canada: NGO staff, volunteers, international development officers, teachers, young people, activists, activists, artists, politicians - in short, all those who strive to mobilize others on global issues. Global Hive brings together best practices from expert public mobilization practitioners under seven thematic areas. This initiative was supported by Global Affairs Canada from 2012 to 2019.
