LRD report on members' perceptions of UCU democracy

As a result, we commissioned the Labour Research Department (LRD) to survey our membership, to ask how they participated in our democratic structures, their confidence in the union's decision-making process and what barriers prevented them from participating in the UCU.

Its findings can be found here.

Thank you to the thousands of you who gave your time and contributed ideas to help shape the future of our union, in such an open and positive way.

Our team will continue exploring ways to improve participation even further over the coming months. I hope you enjoy reading it.

In solidarity

Jo Grady
UCU general secretary
