Centre for Future Work at #ACTUCongress18
Trade unionists from across Australia are gathering in Brisbane this week for the 2018 Congress of the Australian Council of Trade Unions. And the Centre for Future Work will be there!
Come and check out our information booth in the exhibitors’ area: meet our staff, learn more about our work, and sign up for updates.
