The International Confederation of Labour ICL will bring together anarcho-syndicalist and revolutionary syndicalist organizations from all over the world at its Hannover Congress.

In September, in Hannover, Germany, the ICL will hold its Second Congress, where the main issues of concern to the world working class will be debated.

Anarcho-syndicalists and revolutionary trade unions from around the world will meet at the second Congress of their international organization, the International Confederation of Labour – ICL, founded in Parma in 2018. The ICL brings together class unions organized from the bottom up, which understand working conditions and wage labor as part of a broader social system.

Topics such as the future of pension systems, environmental protection and its connection to the class struggle, the future of public health and universal healthcare will be discussed, as well as solidarity with Myanmar and Rojava.

The ICL mainly represents European unions from Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Greece, but Argentina, the USA and Canada will also be present.

In parallel to the central agenda of the congress, debates will be held, such as: To what extent can the international logistics sector be a field of action for cross-border union work?

In doing so, the ICL wants to expand even more internationally in the future and accept the union of more unions within our organization.
