3. Video: Health is our right - Trade unions and environment
   Part one gives an overview of the types of environmental issues and problems faced by working people in the peasant, large-scale farming and urban industrial sector.
   Part two takes a closer and deeper look at the working environment. The video shows how workers organize to understand, get information, discuss and take collective action on the problems they have identified. It uses the struggles around the working environment as a case-study of trade union action to provoke discussion around how workers and unions can develop strategies for environmental issues raised in part one.
