Organising Games

Hanneli Lindholm from Engineers of Sweden is here to talk about games! We look at the progress that has been made so far, what's going on in the mines of Mojang, how unions can cooperate internationally to ensure that Swedish unions can build on victories won on the other side of the globe, get into the nuts and bolts of how academic unions like Engineers of Sweden and the Swedish Association of Professional Scientists work together with broad-based unions like Unionen in individual workplaces, and of course talk a little about events unfolding in the Spotify campaign. And we have a delightful little surprise for you right at the top of the show!
