What would it take to achieve a future where work meets our societal needs for public health, caring for children or climate resilience, where all people can achieve their full potential and agency at work and where the value of work is shared by all?

ReWork the Bay partnered with Working Partnerships USA and Jobs with Justice SF to develop a framework and recommendations for funders and workforce leaders to understand the “Future of Work” in a way that centers the worker perspective and prioritizes racial and economic equity.

Phase 1 of the project resulted in Understanding & Responding to the Changing Nature of Work in the Bay Area, a framework for understanding why and how work is changing in the San Francisco Bay Area, and a (point-in-time) landscape scan of “future of work” focused efforts in the region.

Phase 2 focused on how funders and workforce leaders can center workers in the “future of work,” resulting in the report Power is at the Root, with art by Fernando Marti.
