Faculty

The Harvard Trade Union Program features faculty from several schools of Harvard University, as well as professors and practitioners from labor and management throughout the greater Boston area.  There are also instructors visiting from the United States, Canada, and Europe who deliver talks and workshops on topics of interest to labor leaders. In addition to providing an outstanding program faculty, the Harvard Trade Union Program arranges visits from local, national, and international union leaders and worker advocates, as representatives from the media, politics, public service, and the business community.
