	Description:		On today’s program, two different panel addresses by two very impressive, incredible trade union leaders – one in an official leadership position, the other from the rank n file. The majority of the world’s workers are women, it makes sense that we are the ones leading the struggle for workers’ rights and for social movements for freedom and justice. We’ll hear from Phyo Sandar Soe, Assistant General Secretary of the Confederation of Trade Unions Myanmar, speaking about the ongoing military occupation there, and the people’s struggle for emancipation. Followed by Maojing Chen, Early Childhood Teacher and Project Officer at the Australian Education Union. She was speaking about the historic gender undervaluation in feminised industries, the ongoing campaign and struggle for women’s equal recognition in work.
