URSU Advocacy, in partnership with URFA and other unions, is organizing the first-ever Labour Fair, taking place from March 20–24, 2023, where we will be inviting labour speakers to various classrooms to talk to students about their rights as workers, focused on their future professional fields. The theme of this year’s Labour Fair is: Worker-Student Solidarity. 

The goals of this Labour Fair are to: 

• Bridge the gap between unions and students 

• Create space for unions to connect with students at large, as well as specifically in their field of study 

• Provide educational opportunities for students to learn about the role of unions in the working world, and labour as a growing social movement 

• To foster greater social and labour activism at our university 

• Celebrate students as workers — and workers as students!
