The International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) is a global organization that represents and works for the interests of workers and labor unions worldwide. It is a federation of national trade union centers and individual unions from various countries, comprising more than 200 million workers from different sectors.
The main objective of the ITUC is to promote and protect workers' rights, ensuring that they have decent working conditions, fair wages, and social justice. It advocates for the improvement of labor standards, social dialogue, and the implementation of international labor norms. The ITUC actively engages with governments, international institutions, and employers to influence policies and decisions that affect workers' rights and interests.
Through its global network, the ITUC campaigns against worker exploitation, discrimination, and all forms of unfair practices in the world of work. It represents the interests of workers at international forums such as the United Nations and the International Labor Organization (ILO) to shape global labor policies and frameworks.
The ITUC also provides support and solidarity to affiliated trade unions in various countries, particularly in cases of human rights abuses, anti-union repression, or violations of labor rights. It strives to build a strong and united labor movement that fights for social justice, equality, and dignified work for all.
