The International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) has launched For Democracy, a global campaign to rally the collective power of workers’ trade unions worldwide to advocate for democratic values and worker rights. This month, the campaign focuses on the fight For Democracy in Society, where workers are campaigning for greater political democracy and for national policies that build a new social contract.
Watch the livestream of “Trade Unions and Elections” on 8 April (13.00-14.30 CEST), featuring colleagues from AFL-CIO (USA), ETUC (Europe), ÖGB (Austria), KCTU (Korea), TUC (Ghana), and more. Opening remarks will be delivered by CLJE Executive Director Sharon Block, and the conversation will be moderated by Max Kiefel, postdoctoral fellow at the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation.
