The Pipeline Fighters Hub provides technical, legal, story telling and organizing assistance to any community fighting pipelines and other fossil fuel infrastructure, with the goal of protecting the land and water.
The Pipeline Fighters Hub is a project of the Bold Education Fund to help connect and resource local communities fighting fossil fuel pipelines. The Pipeline Fighters Hub has assembled the best organizers and experts across the country to help train and advise communities.
The Hub launched to the public in 2021 offering the following components:
- Training and technical assistance to local pipeline fights from an online resource library, to assistance on white papers to help with local zoning, to on-the-ground meetings to assist with the landowner organizing model on fighting eminent domain.
- Connect, with a listserv and monthly calls, pipeline fighters and water protectors across the country in order to share news clips, messaging, joint campaigns, resource needs and best practices.
- Identify key local leaders that the media can interview in order to amplify voices from the frontlines and continue the border communications message that stopping pipelines helps solve climate change.
- Amplify finance and other corporate accountability campaigns that go after insurance and other institutions to assist the organizations running those campaigns with stories from on the ground and to assist allied groups efforts.
- Create situational analysis documents and keep a tracking document of pipeline fights across the country to assist with foundation and strategic decisions.
Are you currently fighting a pipeline in your community? Tell us about it.
The Pipeline Fighters Hub team comes with technical, legislative, legal, communications, training, frontline organizing and agricultural experiences. We do not see a difference in someone that has a PhD or someone who gathers their knowledge from the land. When you are up against big corporations, you need everyone at the table.
While pipeline fights all have unique aspects, Big Corporations use a familiar playbook that our experts know and can help you navigate challenges as you work to protect the land and water. The experts that work with the Pipeline Fighters Hub can come to your community for on-the-ground trainings, hearing testimony, legal assistance, technical papers, communications and organizing assistance. The Bold Alliance (a 501(c)4 nonprofit organization) and Bold Education Fund (a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization) also have teams of organizers who can assist communities. View the Bold Team.
