Germany:<\/strong> The workers at Ameos win a big victory and their union, Ver.di, thanked LabourStart for our short campaign in 13 languages, which had 7,968<\/strong> supporters.\u00a0 (It was our biggest active campaign.)\u00a0 The company complained about the large number of protest emails they were receiving.

Ghana:<\/strong> We have a new intern, Benedicta, for the next few weeks, thanks to the Global Labour University. She will help particularly with growing LabourStart’s presence in Ghana.<\/p>\n

Ukraine:<\/strong> We’re expecting to launch a new campaign shortly.<\/p>\n

USA:<\/strong> We’re ordered an advertisement in the conference program for Labor Notes.<\/p>\n

Campaigns:<\/strong> Our campaigns website was briefly down last weekend due to a power failure in Sheffield; this was quickly resolved.<\/p>\n

Mailing lists:<\/strong> We imported 360<\/strong> new subscribers (supporters of recent campaigns) to 10 lists, with the largest groups going to the German (175) and English (141) lists.<\/p>\n

Partners:<\/strong> We had a meeting with the new head of communications at the International Transport Workers Federation in London.

Website redesign:<\/strong> We’re resumed this project, and have released the new version of the Portuguese site and are finishing up the Norwegian one. We’re also making progress on the redesign of the country news pages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
