The struggles of working people have a long and significant history in Aotearoa New Zealand. The Labour History Project (formerly the Trade Union History Project) is an organisation dedicated to researching, recording, preserving and promoting this working-class history.
Formed in 1987 and made up of individual and institutional members, the Labour History Project organises seminars and conferences (such as the biennial Rona Bailey Memorial Lecture), publishes the LHP Bulletin, maintains the Bert Roth Award for Labour History, and supports a wide range of related projects (books, research, exhibitions, documentary films, archive projects and oral histories). The committee of the LHP is based in Wellington, but has members from around the country
Current LHP Committee
Gordon Anderson (Chair), Toby Boraman, Russell Campbell (Treasurer), Ciaran Doolin, Joseph Fletcher, Cybèle Locke, Greg Lloyd, Claire-Louise McCurdy (Secretary), Grace Millar, Mary Roberts-Schirato, Fergus Stratford, Ross Teppett.
