Intro to Nonviolent Activism in Healthcare

The presidents of the Brown chapter of Citizen Physicians developed and coordinated a new pre-clinical elective entitled "Advocacy in Action." Aaron Shapiro, Executive Director of Citizen Physicians, recently taught a workshop as part of this elective course entitled "Physicians Engaging in Nonviolent Activism."

​The power point used in this workshop is attached below.

He also introduced students to Gene Sharp's list of 198 methods of nonviolent activism and created a framework for strategizing acts of nonviolent activism based off of Gene Sharp's methodology (below).

Please feel free to utilize any of these materials for further teaching about nonviolent activism and contact Aaron directly with any questions.
