Labor Movement Conference
This year we are seeing historic developments for the labor movement internationally. The Liverpool Dockers launched a call for an International Strike on January 20, 1997. This day of solidarity was built by the launching of the Docker's Charter on a Web site. The Korean Worker's use of the General Strike Web page gained instantaneous global labor solidarity, which has been instrumental in protecting and defending their struggles.
The first LaborTECH Conference was held in 1990 in San Francisco with the prime goal of strengthening/bringing labor into the high-tech arena. A coalition of labor activists and union communicators came together for 3 days offering and participating in workshops with vision, reality and functionality for the labor movement. This year we will strive to show, share and experience the cutting edge of technological tools of 1997 and join it with the current primary goal of labor today - ORGANIZING!
