At Ungdommens folkemøde 2022, we hosted the workshop Group-Think developed by artist Stine Marie Jacobsen and for this day trained by artist Joni Barnard.

Group-Think (2020-) is a hybrid art project that mixes sport and demonstration.
By introducing training techniques in non-violent civil protest, first aid and collective intelligence into sport, the project aims to strengthen the right to assemble. The exercises aim to stimulate collective intelligence, patience, preparedness, good reflexes, violence prevention, verbal negotiation, accountability, resistance, coping strategies, first aid and group safety in demonstrations.

Joni Barnard is an artist, facilitator and teacher of dance, theatre and bodily activism.
Stine Marie Jacobsen is a conceptual artist working with long term participatory and educational projects.

Group-Think will be launched February 9th at Kunsthalle Rønnebæksholm (DK).
If curious, the project is open sourced with all exercises available online.
