Whose world? Our world :
A paper written from research undertaken with an Eric Pearson Study Grant. Authorised by Maxine Sharkey, General Secretary, NSW Teachers Federation. "This study intends to: investigate the means and manner through which young people as climate activists relate their personal world to the practice of collective action and participation, and what terms such as 'strike' and related industrial strategies mean to them in this context; apply an historical perspective to the #ClimateStrike movement in the context of general strikes of the 19th and 20th centuries at the zenith of the global union movement; consider the potential for a re-emergence of collective action via the union movement as the pre-eminent driver of social and economic justice, in combination with the #ClimateStrike movement as the vanguard of environmental justice. A working premise of the study will be that 'today's climate activists are tomorrow's union members'." - p. 10.
