We support the work of Sindyanna, the women workers’ cooperative associated with the Workers’ Advice Centre (Maan) in Galilee.

That we note the resolution from the Women’s Advisory Committee and instruct the General Secretary to produce a draft syllabus for a two day women’s course. This to be drawn up with the advice of the Women’s Advisory Committee but the final syllabus to be endorsed by the Council of Executives when it is happy with its contents. Applicants for these courses will be put to Branches and Regional Councils and placed in front of the Organisation, Training & Education Sub-Committee.
