'Women's Ways of Organizing' project roundtable

Thurs. May 1, 6- 8 p.m. in New York City

How do women workers organize? Are there particular tactics and strategies that are more effective? What are organizations doing to develop woman’s leadership on the ground?

Celebrate International Workers Day by attending the first (of four) roundtable discussions of the Women's Ways of Organizing project of Cornell University's ILR School. This first roundtable features organizers from the United Federation of Teacher's (UFT) and Home Based Child Care Worker's Campaign.

Each roundtable will feature an in-depth examination of one woman-centered organizing campaign.  The intent of the project is to develop new ideas and draw out new strategies and analysis in an effort to help unions increase their success in organizing.

When/Where:

Time: Thursday, May 1st (International Workers Day) from 6 - 8 p.m.
Place: 6th Floor, 16 East 34th Street,, NYC
RSVP: Contact Pam Whitefield (pw39@cornell.edu or 212-.340-2847)
