28th Western Regional Summer Institute on Union Women
The 28th Annual Western Regional Summer Institute on Union Women will be
held August 11-15, 2009, at the University of California, Los Angeles. The
four-day residential program brings together 150 participants from the
United States' and Canada's western regions for exciting workshops and
speakers on the history, struggles, and achievements of working women. This
year's theme, "Women Workers of the World Unite," speaks to the inclusion of
participants who represent not only labor unions but also workers' centers,
community groups, and other organizations that focus on social and economic
justice issues. In addition to hosting participants from Canada, we have
also extended an invitation to workers from Mexico to build trinational
solidarity for a global social-justice agenda.
AUGUST 11 - 15, 2009, at UCLA DeNeve Plaza
Join participants from all over the western regions of the United States,
Canada, and Mexico who work toward justice for working-class people.
