The Musicians’ Union Guide to Organising and Campaigning

Organising is the foundation of every successful campaign, and a core part of what trade unions do.

This guide is an introduction to what organising is, how it works, and what to do if you think you might have an issue in your workplace or local music community.

It answers the questions:

• What is organising?
• What makes a campaign?
• How do you talk to people about trade unions?
• What does the MU do to support equality, diversity and inclusion?
• What do reps and activists need to know?
• Where can you go for support?

This guide is for any member who is interested in organising and campaigning, and is a core resource for members taking part in the MU Organising Training Programme.
