  • Local: Acting on local civic issues and connecting communities (Programs + collective events = 2800 hours)
  • Systemic: Supporting and co-organizing solidarity events (5 major national networks of 300 + grassroots organizations = 1300 hours)
Overall Initiatives and Impact

We believe that lasting change in a city is best achieved by citizen power. BRM is pioneering an approach of citizen-led, citizen-funded social change.
The movement is volunteer-driven with minimal overheads. These funds will primarily support the Movement and project's personnel + admin costs.

Your funds help citizens engage actively to create sustainable cities.
