Global Labour University Conference, 14-16 September 2010, Berlin, Germany
The two days Global Labour University Conference has been providing a space for generating progressive responses to this unprecedented global crisis and the challenges labour is facing. The Global Labour University invited trade unionists and academic scholars to explore ideas for a progressive alternative to the failed globalisation regime. Fundamental change is required to protect people and societies against the current economic disorder. Democratic decision making needs to be the master of the market and not vice versa. The leaflet below (pdf) describes the Conference in more detail and under Key Resources you will find additional documents from the Conference.
