The Rural Power Coalition and Shareable are co-hosting the Rural Electric Cooperative Co-lab in March and April 2025. The Co-lab will feature eight (hour-long) weekly training sessions.
This learning and action lab is designed to mobilize supportive organizations and rural electric cooperative (REC) member-owners to reclaim their RECs to spread democracy, improve people’s lives, and act on the climate crisis.
In this sixth session of the co-lab, Rachel Christensen, Alex Petkanas, and David Stokley will present on how democratic REC elections are run and how to get engaged in them.
Following the Co-lab, our team will produce a comprehensive digital organizing toolkit and self-paced online course to empower member-owners to take action at the local level.
