Sorry, my mistake -- there is no "context" argument. Just pass the dict as
an unnamed argument, or pass each item as its own keyword argument:
response.render(dict(organization=session.organization, ...))
or just:
response.render(organization=session.organization, ...)
Side note: you don't need the line continuation slash ("\") if what you're
continuing is in parentheses.
