Symbiosis Congress of Municipal Movements
Tax deductible
From September 18-22, 2019, community organizations from across North America will convene in Detroit, MI to deliberate and launch a continental confederation of grassroots, democratic movements.

If you or your organization is interested in participating in the Congress, please sign up as an individual or an organization here .
About Symbiosis
Symbiosis is building a confederation of grassroots, democratic community organizations across North America. We are fighting for a better world by creating institutions of participatory democracy and the solidarity economy through community organizing, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
When we organize, we can resist, but resistance is not governance. We need a better approach, beyond the particular struggles to contain the excesses and brutalities of our present system, toward a coherent movement strategy that creates the systems of tomorrow.
Our organizations have come together because we recognize that the changes required to secure our future are more than what each of us can do at the local level. We need to escalate our strategy towards a strong network, or confederation.
About the Congress of Municipal Movements
Delegates from our member organizations, as well as at-large members and partner organizations, will convene in Detroit this September to 1) build community, 2) learn from one another, and 3) launch a permanent confederation for decision-making, mutual aid, and resource-sharing between directly democratic grassroots institutions and movements across the continent.
