Digital Rights Work & Self-care
We dedicated this Glitter Meetup to discuss ideas of how we can better work/network on Digital Rights with each other virtually, considering we may be in quarantine for a while. Especially build cooperations and keeping self-care as a priority.
How to improve our work/network
- To have more meetups focused on self-care/mental health
- To have meetups focused on self-care with a trans-regional perspective
- To have more places to get to know the space
- To better align our work and cooperate to promote IFF community projects. These could be sustained through time, building upon projects/interests that each is working on, and adjusting responsibilities and time to various needs
When everyone says self-care what are you envisioning
- Self care to me it's also time management, and self esteem conversations
- I imagine a simple check in like this, but where the provoking questions are about how you are feeling at that moment or like something nice you did for yourself that week
- outdoors and exercising more
Formats and Activities for Self-care
- Guided Meditations
- Practical Workshops
- Video calls, phone calls, text based
- An informal call discussing how i'm feeling, while i'm walking
- Watch a movie together and people join a chat room
