Highlights:

*Learn about the history of student-labor organizing, and its’ amazing achievements!Students and garment workers have organized to see to the creation of Alta Gracia-the world’s first ever living-wage, union-made college apparel factory, in the Dominican Republic Free Trade Zone.
*Gain a better understanding of campaigning on campus with fun, interactive, youth-led workshops on coalition building, organizing conversations, power dynamics, and more! Hear from students who have had concrete wins on their campuses, and how they made it happen!
