Worker Co-ops for Young People: Create Your Own Work 4 – 5 July, 10am – 4pm Chapel in the Garden, Bridport. Dorset UK £75 This interactive workshop facilitated by Rhiannon Colvin and Constance Laisné will empower young people (18-29 year olds - but flexible!) to take control of their future by learning how to set up co-operative businesses. With high youth unemployment, unpaid internships and exploitative labour market, co-ops enable youth to create their own work. Work that allows them to generate a fair income, do what they love and have a positive social impact. Rhiannon founded AltGen when she got tired of applying for endless unpaid internships and decided young people could create something better if they started working together. She also believes in empowering people through education. Constance is passionate about encouraging collaborative forms of creative work. For her, joining AltGen was a means of moving towards this aim within an organisation that shares her values and ethics.
