The Future of Work and Unions in the Americas
The Center for Global Workers´Rights (CGWR) is hosting the Seminar "The Future of Work and Unions in the Americas" on Thursday, April 13 at 6:00 p.m. EDT in 108 Chambers Building (Penn State University).
Across the Americas, workers are confronting challenges linked to widening economic inequalities, environmental degradation, and the lack of effective public policies to guarantee care and social protection for all. In response, they are experimenting with new forms of organizing, coalition building and public policy advocacy.
In this seminar, labor leaders and scholar-activists from the USA, Mexico and Brazil will discuss how the labor movement in North and South America is envisioning the future of work in the face of these systemic crises.
