Representatives of the British meat industry meet in Eastbourne in November 2009. 25,000 workers are represented by 50 delegates, mostly shop stewards. This conference is called "Meat Combine". Due to their remarkable success in the national meat industry, union and shop stewards are faced with the necessity of organizing meat industry workers worldwide, and of establishing an international "Meat Combine".

November 23, 2009: Sharon Graham, Director of the Organising Department of the union UNITE! speaks about her work. She explains the difference between her kind of union work and the traditional labour union, which functions as a service provider for its members and sees itself in partnership with employers. She explains the term “organising” and reports on the current state of worldwide organising in the meat industry.
