Why a practical guide?

The aim is to inspire people and make it easier for them to organize actions and get involved. It’s a resource document, organized into theme-based factsheets. It offers detailed explanations of issues relating to local groups and also includes methods concerning the main actions that might be considered, in order to propose operational tools. The guide aims to facilitate the technical aspect of actions so they take place with as much ease as possible.
