‘Love is an action, never simply a feeling.’ bell hooks’ powerful statement urges us to see love as a transformative, active force – rooted in action, accountability, and resistance to oppression. Love becomes a radical tool to confront inequality, alienation, and exploitation, motivating collective action for justice. It transcends personal affection, becoming a commitment to solidarity, mutual care, and shared humanity.
This Summer School, organised by the School of Transnational Organising, brought together activists, artists, educators, and organisers from across Europe to explore how love, as the foundation of solidarity, can drive resistance in climate justice, migration rights, and labour struggles. Through workshops, panels, and cultural events, participants will develop strategies, share skills, and strengthen networks of care and justice. This gathering emphasised the power of human connection to overcome isolation and build a more just, sustainable future grounded in collective action.
