Abstract (Poster)

The Stories of Solidarity poster highlights the overall process of the project, from hackathon to working prototype with original code and user testing with precarious workers.

intro                                                                                                                                                                  Rapid technological change, globalization and volatile competitive conditions have contributed to growing insecurity in work, in which the workplace is less frequently a site of long-term stability and collective experiences of work have been eroded as a basis for solidarity. In recent years, however, we have seen growth in innovative communication strategies that are connecting people around labor issues across multiple and disparate places.
