Organising Workers Through Digital Means

Abstract

The research collaboration between the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities, Humanities, Arts and Social Science Cluster at the Singapore University of Technology and Design and the National Trades Union Congress explored how workers might be organised through digital means, beyond the traditional ways of organising workers. We termed this as ‘Digital Organising’.

This report details our research and recommendations for organisers on how they should transition into digital organising. We conducted a review of global trends in digital organising, reviewed relevant case studies of digital organising (Chapter 2) and held a design workshop to gather and make sense of the individual experiences of organising to inform our recommendations for future digital organising (Chapters 3 and 4).
