FES, CICTAR, PSI Global Union Corporate Tax Campaigning Seminar
Building Union Capacity to Challenge Corporate Power
Date: 8 October, 2018 to 10 October, 2018
Time: 09.00 - 17.00
Location: Centre international de conférences, Rue de Varembé, Geneva
The seminar will provide unions with insight and guidance on how to identify and execute corporate tax campaigns to achieve industrial and political objectives. The three-day seminar will explain critical campaign tools that challenge corporate power, enable unions to integrate tax issues into union campaign strategies and explore how this fits with the efforts to change the rules for multinational corporations. Successful case studies will be presented by senior global trade unionists, investigative journalists, civil society tax campaigners and researchers. Participants will learn when such campaigns can be successful, how to integrate the techniques into your current campaigns and what issues need to be addressed. The program is structured so that the first day is suitable for senior union leaders to attend (who may not have time for the full three days) whilst other staff will attend the full three-day program.
With ICRICT commissioner Eva Joly’s participation on Monday 8 October at 10 :00 AM in the panel “Why corporate tax matters to workers”
