Fight for the Future is a national conference for young workers (those aged under 30 working full-time or combining work and study) to be held in Adelaide from 26 - 27 July, 2007. The conference is run by SA Unions, and registration is now open (and it’s free!).

The organisers say: “Young people have been significantly disadvantaged by the changes to work laws and electoral enrolment procedures over the past year. Young workers from all over the country are invited to come together, share their experiences and hear first hand how the Federal Government’s Industrial Relations legislation is impacting on young people.”

There will be three workshop streams:

  • High school and TAFE students (SA based students only)
  • Workplace campaigning
  • Community or grassroots activism

Participants will develop action plans that can be implemented upon their return to school, workplaces and local communities.

Registration closes 20 July, 2007.
