Muniis Hussein

Muniis’s work is grounded in labour, collective organizing, and the systems that shape economic and social life. Their research focuses on labour unions as central to advancing workers’ rights, economic justice, and collective power in Canada. They have developed a data visualization booklet and a database of reported Canadian strikes in 2025, contributing to more accessible and publicly legible understandings of labour activity.

With approximately two years of experience in the non-profit sector, Muniis has worked across advocacy research, program support, and early-stage initiative development. Their work spans research, writing, and coordination, with a consistent focus on translating complex social issues into clear, accessible materials that support community impact.

Muniis has contributed to organizations and initiatives such as Persistence Project, where they supported advocacy-driven research and the development of emerging projects, as well as the Jane and Finch Action Against Poverty, engaging in workers’ rights education and community-based programming. They have also worked with the Blackhurst Cultural Centre as a labour researcher, connecting contemporary worker organizing to broader histories of community formation, economic justice, and collective care. Their contributions at Blackhurst were recognized with a Research Excellence Award.

Their experience includes both participation in and support of community programming, providing them with a working understanding of program structures, youth engagement, and grassroots organizing environments.

Muniis holds a degree in the humanities from York University.
