Hiya, I’m Keira, and I head up a youth climate movement called ReGeneration 2030 in the Nordic and Baltic Sea region. I first found RadHR through googling stuff when I was working in a community library for people stuck in refugee camps in Greece and have found it super useful in a bunch of different contexts.
Joining the discussion side of things as I realise now that some stuff is cool to talk about!
Hey, nice to e-meet you! I’m Veronica - I’m one of the Core Team members at RadHR. So glad to hear you’ve found the site useful. Looking forward to chatting more with you
My name is Abe. I’m in Newark, NJ, USA. I’m a member of Grassroots Economic Organizing (GEO) Collective (www.geo.coop), Homes For All Newark, and a steering committee for a food co-op. Earlier this year, I received my masters in management for co-ops and credit unions. My final research paper was on applying liberation psychology to anti-capitalist strategic planning for worker collectives. I’m a bit of a student of collective process. I’ve been doing work in the solidarity economy for twenty five years now.
I’m curious to learn more about what others are doing for HR done more with transformative justice and care work that is more transformative than how HR is done in more corporate settings.
Hello everyone my name is Shivy, hollering all the way from the lower mainland of British Columbia. I currently work in many areas pertaining to community and mental health. I work as a Community & Human Resource Manager for a non-profit called Solid State Community Industries; where we incubate cooperatives ranging from worker and community services, I also work as a child and youth care counsellor for a local school district, director of youth services and programming for a South Asian led non-profit focus on peer networks for youth, and co-founder for a community services coop that bridges the gap between queer communities in Surrey, British Columbia and deals with universal food insecurity especially for seniors and vulnerable queer youth; and currently doing a masters in Counselling Psychology.
Recently been elected into this new HR role, and looking forward to learning so much and all of your and gaining and sharing new resources. It definitely will take time for me to grasp the full scope of the work; especially after our new governance restructuring so I’m grateful to be included in this community.
Hi @Shivneel_Reddy! Welcome! Sounds like an incredible range of things you’re doing! The connections between mental health/ counselling and being able to think more holistically around HR/operations work is such an important one! Looking forward to hearing your insights in the forum, if you have the chance to share your perspectives
Hi @boyfromthefuture - sounds like the RadHR community will really benefit from your experiences in these areas! If that research paper was available publicly, I’m sure there are other co-ops and collectives in here that would benefit from it? (No pressure tho!)
