A Danish project (1977-1980) inspired by the earlier Norwegian Iron and Metal Workers Union project. In English, "Democracy, Development and Electronic Data Processing (EDP)". According to Ehn, Kyng, 1987 the project sought to develop a one-week course for shop stewards. The project had three phases:
- Survey shop stewards for the major problems arising from the introduction of computers.
- Form working groups of union members on site to study systems and take action to improve their situations.
- Produce educational material and reports to build knowledge across the trade unions.
A key project in the collective resource approach.
