CoTech Propaganda WG?

Hello! We discussed this today in the June monthly call. We were very enthusiastic about it. The conclusion was that we would be best to organise a call for everyone who is interested in this group in principle, and figure out the first achievable objectives and how to approach them? :slight_smile:

does Wednesday 14th July work for everyone ? I’ll open a poll below :calendar:

In the June call we discussed:

  • The potential benefits of having a defined role for a network facilitator
  • The overlapping of interest between unions, co-operatives and software tools
    • the York Collective (a courier’s co-operative) which sprung out from the courier’s strikes against Deliveroo and Uber Eats. Coop Cycle which is a platform co-operative tool federating courier’s co-operatives
    • Wobbly, @KingMob 's communication tool designed for decentralised unions (inspired by the same wave of strikes)
    • the potential synergy between co-operatives supporting unions and unions founding co-operatives. October’s conference of union co-ops posted on the forum today by @chris
  • Alternative content such as this interactive game about trust and mutual aid in the spontaneous peaces of WW1, and this text-based adventure game supporting the August 2018 prison strike
  • Propagandising CoTech, and propagandising co-operative ideas and principles in general
  • the potential in large union organisations for helping us in these efforts
  • that networking and making personal contacts with likeminded organisations would be a good first step in organising something larger-scale

In the old thread we also discussed:
