Climate Mobilization Project’s team just held a member-led session “From Shock to Climate Survival: Taking the Leap” at New Economy Coalition’s assembly in Durham, North Carolina – which brought together 120+ leaders across the U.S. that are building solidarity economy projects including land projects, worker cooperatives, mission-driven businesses, grassroots community organizations, and more.

Rooted in learnings from Climate Mobilization Project's work to resource grassroots survival hubs & infrastructure as on-ramps to localized community-controlled economies around food, energy, water, land, housing, tech, & health/care, we reflected on the economic shocks of 2026 and asked:

Where are the most concrete openings & potential “leaps” we can take for solidarity economy development right now?

What somatic & human factors do we need to attune to to cultivate a “means of possibility” in an era of fear & unknown?

And what do survival initiatives need in order to become scalable engines of grassroots economic change?

We can’t wait to build deeper collaborations with workshop participants and leaders across New Economy Coalition's ecosystem!

As CMP's Co-Leader said during the session:

"Every one of these threads — land, food, energy, housing, health, tech, water— is the same story: the systems people we were told to depend on are visibly retreating, and that retreat is opening real, concrete vacuums faster than most of us are used to operating at.

Localized, community-controlled economies aren’t a nice-to-have alternatives anymore — they’re becoming the more economically rational, more stable option, in real time.

The question this session is built around is whether we’re organized enough, and whether we have the human and emotional capacity, to take that opening before it closes back up."

Join us this Tuesday for Leaping Into the Unknown: Local Experiments in Climate Survival. Learn more & sign up: https://bit.ly/leapingintotheunknown

Leaping into the Unknown is a new series of online gatherings that will provide a closer look at the approaches grassroots leaders at the frontlines of climate collapse are using to grow survival hubs and build new worlds.

The first call in the series will feature a report back from the National Climate Survival Incubator gathering, where young BIPOC climate leaders from 17 communities spent a week building skills and learning from each others’ survival initiatives. We’ll gather lessons from these local survival projects about building resistance movements rooted in spirituality and an embodied connection to land.

As the global fuel and fertilizer crisis escalates, we’ll explore strategies for building movements and solidarity economies rooted in food, land, energy, water, and tech sovereignty and self-determination.

And together, we’ll talk about creative ways for you to plant seeds of survival today -- bringing these approaches to your block, your organization or another part of your community.

❤️‍🔥 We just wrapped up our inaugural gathering for Climate Mobilization Project’s National Climate Survival Incubator cohort, and it could not have been more of a beautiful experience. ❤️‍🔥

🌱 We spent 6 days together learning survival skills including mesh networks, emergency solar systems, seed saving, and other skill-based workshops led by cohort participants who are leading and representing 17+ climate survival initiatives across the country.

💜 We also spent time cooking, dancing, foraging, laughing, and building bonds that will last the rest of our lifetimes, and that’s what made it truly special. As one cohort member put it best, “My precious human brain cannot comprehend the the precious webs that were weaved this past week. Mobilizing across Turtle Island with the most brilliant minds I’ve ever met, hoping to shift the narrative that the collapse of empire is not the collapse of our humanity.” 🌺

❤️‍🔥 It is an honor being able to facilitate such a special gathering and cohort of BIPOC youth leaders who are making waves of changes in the world, and having the opportunity to nourish and nurture their visionary projects and dreams with this cohort.

A very special thank you to Black Roots Farm, the incredible Black owned farm and cohort participant in Wi******er, KY that generously hosted us and allowed us to learn from them as a critical case study of what power, survival and self-determination look like. And special thank you to sponsoring organizations including Emergent Fund, and Signals Rising which donated 17 solar mesh nodes to every participating cohort member, and Kiau Technologies for a subsidized solar powered soil monitoring system which we installed at Black Roots Farm to support their work in regenerative agriculture. 🔥

There are just 36 hours left to make a gift this year! Today and tomorrow ONLY, give $25 or more and you’ll get a jar of organic dried hibiscus blossoms – the perfect calming and warming winter tea.

Give today: https://bit.ly/giveforsurvival

Your gift of $10 a month, or $100 will get you tea and a T-shirt, and your gift of $25 a month, or $250 will get you tea and a hoodie. (As always, the goodies are optional - we’ll email you to confirm before anything gets shipped!)

Your gift today helps young leaders build resilient communities that are ready for the challenges 2026 will bring -- through grassroots water, food, and renewable energy infrastructure; and new, democratic structures that bring people together to meet each others’ needs.

Together, we can create communities strong enough to resist fascist power grabs, and movements that will lead us through the crises to come.

Next year will bring more climate disasters and political crises. But with your support, young Black, Brown, and Indigenous leaders on the front lines of this moment’s upheaval will have a place to heal and strategize, and the skills to guide their communities through crises.

With just five days left until the end of the year, we are still $54,840 away from raising enough funds to train and support young leaders from 17 communities next year.
