Summary:
The gig economy allows consumers to access goods and services with a swipe, but it leaves low-wage workers struggling with precarious employment and unfair wages. It’s not enough to fight for workplace diversity — if we want a more just, inclusive technology industry, we need to amplify workers’ voices in designing the products that fuel this new economy. Join other young progressives in tech and Palak Shah, Social Innovations Director at the National Domestic Workers Alliance, for an intimate conversation about how tech companies and social movements can collaborate to advance workers rights.
