How to Be a Craftivist

This is mindful activism... thought-out, strategic and engaging — Observer

What if changing the world didnt have to mean shouting the loudest?

In this updated 10th anniversary edition of How to Be a Craftivist, award-winning activist and founder of the global Craftivist Collective Sarah P. Corbett offers a powerful alternative to apathy, aggression and burnout: gentle protest.

Drawing on years of successful campaigns, Sarah shows how craft, creativity and thoughtful action can open conversations, influence decision-makers and create lasting change. Her approach has reached thousands of people around the world, demonstrating that activism can be strategic and effective without sacrificing kindness, empathy or respect.

Part manifesto, part practical guide, How to Be a Craftivist is for anyone who wants to stand up against injustice but doesnt feel at home in traditional activism. Ten years on, its call for a slower, more thoughtful and more humane way to make change feels more urgent than ever.

One stitch at a time, quiet action can make a powerful difference.

I love what Sarah does! Its quiet activism for everyone including introverts — Jon Ronson
