Let’s build migrant worker power
As part of the Mobile University for Migrant Workers project, Berlin migrant workers in tech, aviation, and delivery are warmly invited to:
- explore workplace rights they can call upon to build power over labor processes and win increased control over their lives
- situate these rights within a broader “ecology” of powers that workers can co-develop to increase influence and transformative potential
- position contemporary migrant worker struggles within a historical continuum that contextualizes contemporary tensions and points of conflict.
