What we do
Our Offering
What we do
The Flamingo Collective supports activists, movements, NGOs and progressive organisations to reconnect, regroup and take action. In a time of division and burnout, we create spaces for reflection, strategy and solidarity—built on feminist values, collective care and a shared commitment to systemic change.
We help people and organisations build power, shift paradigms and to keep going through these 5 offerings:
01
Community & Organising
The prevailing political climate has created a lot of despair, division and conflict in the world in general and in civil society specifically. Against this, we gather NGOs, movements, activists and progressive advocates that are currently feeling defeated, divided and conquered, to get up and go again. The Flamingo Collective runs quarterly community gatherings to support deep reflection, coalition building, strategising, tactics building, planning, and act as spaces of joy, hope and mutual support.
02
Annual Retreats
Our retreats create the space for collective sense-making about the state of the world, the systems we have created that are generating fear and division and figuring out what to do about it all together. These retreats are built on the foundations of active hope, systemic change and intersectional feminist organising.
Upcoming Retreat: Eco-feminist Retreat for Systems Change. September 22–24, 2025. Location: Sofia, Bulgaria
03
Organisational Support & Coaching
We work with progressive organisations on transformative organisational culture and political strategies to build power towards systemic change in Europe. In our work, we create safe and brave spaces, balancing care and kindness with courage and room for difficult conversations to emerge.
” Power matters. At the core of the work of liberation is the intention to challenge and transform the systems and structures that maintain oppression and inequity. “
04
Facilitation & Moderation
Our approach to moderation is rooted in feminist values of care, equity, and shared power. We create spaces that are intentionally inclusive, where diverse voices are heard, respected, and centred—especially those historically marginalised. Feminist moderation means slowing down when needed, making room for emotion and embodiment, challenging hierarchies, and encouraging collective reflection and co-creation.
05
Training
We design and deliver transformative trainings that equip individuals and organisations with the tools, practices, and perspectives needed to build more just, feminist, and systemic approaches to change. Our offerings range from feminist leadership and facilitation, to systems thinking for organisers, to building inclusive movements rooted in care, equity, and collective power. All our trainings are participatory, reflective, and grounded in lived experience—designed not just to inform, but to inspire action and shift paradigms.
