"To restore confidence in democracy, national leaders must urgently expand democracy and deliver what workers need." ITUC General Secretary Luc Triangle’s 2025 message
FOR DEMOCRACY THAT DELIVERS
Trade unions are campaigning For Democracy that Delivers. We know that the best way to restore confidence in democracy is to ensure that institutions reflect the will, and meet the needs, of the majority of workers worldwide.
Governments will find a clear roadmap in the ITUC’s Strategic Objectives for the campaign for a New Social Contract that guarantees peace and collective power, social justice and prosperity for all, and a just transition and worker-centred digital transformation.
ITUC affiliated trade unions are mobilising across the world in advance of five major moments of tripartite and intergovernmental decision-making. For each round of action, the ITUC organises public webinars, petitions and calls to action. It also coordinates directly with unions at every level, as well as social movements, to support their campaigns.
