Multimedia
EILER recognizes the role of cutting-edge technology in advancing labor education among Filipino workers. It founded Mayday Productions in 2004 as a multimedia program, which later came out with the widely-acclaimed video documentary “Sa Ngalan ng Tubo” (In the Name of Profit), about the November 16, 2006 massacre of Hacienda Luisita workers in Tarlac, Philippines.
While Mayday Productions has spun off from EILER as a separate entity since 2008, it still enters into partnerships with our institution for quality video documentaries on the condition and struggles of workers in the country. For its part, EILER has devoted itself to finding new, creative ways to incorporate information and communications technology (ICT) into its programs, even as it seeks to preserve more traditional methods that have served as the backbone of its work over the years.
