title:
Identify ways to improve the availability of office space and equipment within trade unions. Trainees shared that they are unable to utilise their skills because of a lack of office space and the necessary IT and other office equipment. BILS has tried to provide office space on a rotating basis. Future interventions should assess if there are other innovative ways to support trade unions with this capacity.
