LANGDON, Jonathan. Translocal Social Movement Learning in the Face of COVID-19: Building Online Solidarity During Lockdowns. Educ. as change [online]. 2022, vol.26, n.1, pp.1-14. ISSN 1947-9417.  http://dx.doi.org/10.25159/1947-9417/8883.

Social movements are at the forefront of fighting for another world as conceptualised through Arundhati Roy's portal. COVID-19 and state measures imposed to contend with it have severely impacted not only the activism of movements, but also their capacity to learn. Translocal social movement learning offers one way in which such learning can continue. This article shares reflections from participants involved in a translocal learning engagement between movement members and activist-scholars from Ghana, South Africa and Canada. It provides an important example of the kind of non-hierarchal social movement learning that can happen at a distance, when movements share, learn and support one another.
