This page was created to answer questions from activists interested in making group decisions in a more non-hierarchical way.


Listening, healthy conflict, reflexivity and flexibility are guides to making decisions that value the contribution of multiple perspectives. Joined to these, the continuing training of members on conflict management, non-violent communication, anti-oppression, restorative justice, active listening as well as group leadership make it possible to perpetuate a culture which tends towards non-hierarchy.


This page discusses how hierarchies fit into our groups' decision-making and how to address them in a way that suits our group's intentions.
