OUR Walmart: Change Jobs, Change Retail and Change the World!

Wednesday, September 11 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Location: Room 402-B

In this workshop, organizers will lead a discussion about the key lessons from the OUR Walmart campaign’s worker-centered organizing. Raising standards for retail workers worldwide requires raising the standards of the largest retail employer in the world, Walmart. Participants in this brainstorming and fact-finding workshop will learn more about Walmart, OUR Walmart and how the campaign’s approach can be applied to other organizing. Explore creative ways workers can organize around issue-based fights, moving to action on a larger scale.
