Running a Local Campaign on Fair, Local and Good Quality Jobs

Join us in a dynamic session focused on tackling the real challenges of employment today especially for young people navigating low-quality jobs, unpaid internships, and limited career pathways.

Led by Joshua Ireland (Citizens UK), Ali Arshad (Ffair Jobs) and Nirushan Sudarsan (Cardiff University), this event offers a practical and empowering space to explore what fair, local, and good quality jobs really mean. Drawing inspiration from Cardiff’s Community Jobs Compact, participants will engage in campaign-building activities that challenge traditional recruitment norms and advocate for meaningful change.

This event is part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science, which is taking place in Universities across the UK from Saturday 18th October - Saturday 8th November 2025.
