New ICTs create new structures and new 'cyber-works' that allow the state and capital to reorganise production, consumption, finance and politics alongside global production commodity networks. As a result we are lose social and labour rights that we won after giving long and painful democratic struggles in the centre and the periphery. Yet, the developments in the ICTs also bear great potential for us when re-organising ourselves. The workshop creates a space for fruitful practical and solution focused space to exchange and work on impressive tools and tactics, core issues, main problems and useful lessons on digital labour (self-)organising, especially of the informal and precarious workers'. We invite key labour activists, organiser and researchers who are engaged and observing the most recent experiences, to share ideas and collaborate. 2.
