We Demand Dignified Working and Living Conditions

The World Federation of Trade Unions, the militant voice of 105 million workers from 133 countries, organizes the 2024 International Action Day of Trade Unions for Peace on September 1st, on the occasion of the dark anniversary of the beginning of the Second World War with the Nazi Germany’s attack on Poland. We call upon the workers and class-oriented trade unions all over the world to actively and militantly respond in this vital annual International Call for Action which is dedicated to the remembrance of millions of victims of Nazi and fascist atrocities and all those affected and suffering by imperialist conflicts and the endless thirst of big capital for profit.

In accordance with the 2024 Presidential Council’s unanimous decision and the 2024 Action Plan, the World Federation of Trade Unions is organizing for one more year a solidarity campaign with the people of Cuba, on the occasion of the 26th of July, the anniversary of the attack on the Moncada Barracks in Santiago de Cuba, spreading the strong internationalist message that Cuba is not alone. Especially during this very difficult period with the Cuban People being in the crosshairs of imperialism, it is vital to express our internationalist solidarity and support, by organizing protests and demonstrations in front of American embassies and consulates, demanding the Stop of the blockade and the removal of Cuba from the list of countries that “allegedly sponsor terrorism”.
