*Building solidarity across movements*



CGEU 2019: Building Solidarity Across Movements comes at a time of growing
resistance to austerity measures across North America. Student and labour
movements are confronting major cuts to post-secondary education, public
services, as well as a number of important social welfare programs. Now
more than ever we are seeing an increase in social movement work and
collaborative projects from student, labour and grassroots organizers as
people from all walks of life mobilize to resist austerity measures.



 This year CGEU looks at the intersections of our movements.  How can
students, workers and community activists unite the fight and organize
across movements? How might our unique histories of organizing inform other
movements and help us unite struggles for political, economic and social
justice?



 Part conference, part skills share, CGEU 2019: Building Solidarity Across
Movements aims to inspire our movement-building work on and between
campuses. We look to connect campus-based struggles to community-based
resistance work, and highlight the importance of international coalition
building and solidarity work. In this spirit, we aim to feature
undergraduate student resistance work as well as community organizing
alongside conversations about graduate worker organizing.
