Unions and community groups often have mutual interests. Increasing levels
of poverty, inequality and decreasing access to services are all issues we
need to combine forces on. We often support each other on these issues.
Imagine how much more impact we could have if we could further strengthen
the ties between us.
That's why the Kotare Trust is organising these workshops - as a space for
building strong, ongoing relationships between unions and community groups
working for social change - and to look at how we can campaign alongside one
another for mutual benefit. The workshops will include discussing our
different ways of working; campaign goals, objectives, strategy and tactics;
and shared courses of action in the lead-up to the election and beyond.
Cost: We are offering this workshop at the lowest possible cost. The fee
is $185 per union attendee and $85 per community organisation attendee. In
effect, union colleagues will be subsidising $50 per place for community
organisations. If the fee is a real barrier to attending, please contact us
and we will see whether we can further subsidise your place.
Registration: Please register as soon as possible and no later than Friday
the 19th of August. Spaces are limited so get in quick!
Facilitation team: Tanya Newman (Kotare) and Liz Robinson (Kotare and NZNO)
