We owe a debt of gratitude to our partner organizations around the world that came together with a few weeks' notice.<br>

        A research team led out of the University of Victoria is working on a research project investigating platform worker cooperatives’ governance, with a particular focus on potential governance challenges and how they can be overcome. This project is expected to help simplify the start-up process for platform cooperatives and help existing ones avoid common governance pitfalls. All leaders and/or founders of platform worker cooperatives (that have workers as one of their core member groups) and that have knowledge of the governance of the cooperative are eligible to participate. Participating in this study will involve an interview that is expected to last about one hour and can be done over the phone or on a program like Skype. The researchers will maintain participants’ confidentiality and not use their names or the names of the platforms they work for in any publications. If you or anybody you know is eligible, please consider participating in this research project or sharing this note with people in your network. Interested participants can contact Dr. Simon Pek, the Principal Investigator, at <a href="mailto:spek@uvic.ca?subject=via%20PCC%20newsletter" style="color:#1c8b7e;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">spek@uvic.ca</a> anytime to learn more.<br>
