News Let’s Get Real! 2nd Australasian Organising Conference
It's time to take stock and move on. This is where you and the 2nd Australasian Organising Conference fit in. Come join us from Wednesday 7 - Friday 9 May 2003 at the University of Sydney, Holme Building. Hosted by the ACTU, the NSW Labor Council and NZ Council of Trade Unions the Conference will combine plenary and panel sessions, workshops and lots of opportunities to share your stories. This not to be missed conference aims to: · assess our progress in strengthening and growing our unions · refocus unions on the importance of organisational renewal · provide recognition to unions who have made significant progress · provide hope to unions who are struggling to achieve change · launch unions@work 2 to crystallise what is needed to continue to move forward · provide case studies, skills and workshops on contemporary issues to assist unions · enable unions to reflect on their progress and identify key priorities to move forward The conference will be conducted over three days, commencing the first day at 10.30 am and finishing on the final day in the early afternoon. This will enable most participants to travel on the day of the conference, limiting accommodation to two nights. The conference will be finished on Friday, enabling New Zealand and interstate participants to spend a weekend and reduce airfare costs. We've come a long way but there's so much more to do. Come join in and celebrate our successes as we all build our way to the next level. Let's get serious and maybe even have a bit of fun!
