TechUnionization is a space for tech workers to organize against corporate greed, unethical AI deployment, and the industry’s growing role in climate destruction, war, and surveillance. With mass layoffs, worker exploitation, and the rise of techno-fascism, it’s more important than ever to push for ethical workplaces, AI safety, job security, and corporate accountability. Join us in demanding a future where our labor benefits workers and society—not just the wealthy.

Get involved with CODE-CWA to help build worker power in tech.

We’ll have two onboarding calls for anyone who wants to learn more about the Tech Workers Coalition & what you can do to get more involved. This is a great chance to hear about our projects, meet some cool people, and get plugged in, whether you’re new or have been lurking, or simply want a refresher.

We will have two sessions (both the same content) on Tuesday, April 15th to make it easier for timezones. Register now at bit.ly/twc101-apr2025A or bit.ly/twc101-apr2025B for your respective slot.
