Following the devastating earthquake, how can we help Haiti's workers movement in its continuing attempts to organise some of the island's most vulnerable people against exploitation?

No Sweat has a history of organising solidarity with Haitian workers; in 2004, we brought Yannick Etienne - a leader of radical union federation Batay Ouvriye - to the UK for a speaker-tour, and this February we've organised a comedy-music benefit gig for Batay Ouvriye:

Come along and discuss the situation for Haitian workers, and how we can support them.

Speakers:

Andy Taylor (Haiti Support Group)
Vicki Morris (No Sweat)
