When and where
Date and time: Tue, 21 February 2023, 11:00 – 17:00 GMT
This will be a one-day hybrid event (both in-person and online/remote participation possible) at the University of Leeds (assuming UCU strikes do not end up changing the venue!), including:
– presentation of my research report from the project “Work without bosses, homes without landlords, and nothing about us without us: Researching disabled people’s involvement in co-operatives in the UK”
– presentations by co-ops founded by or to meet the needs of disabled people
– discussions about the potential of co-ops of various types (housing, workers, multi-stakeholder) to overcome disabling barriers
– networking space for disabled people and allies who are involved or interested in getting involved in co-ops
– hopefully practical steps towards founding some new co-ops!
