Education International General Secretary David Edwards and more than 70 education union leaders are taking the teachers' voice to the 114th International Labour Conference of the ILO to stand up for the human and labor rights of teachers and education workers around the world.

🇱🇧 Solidarity with Lebanese workers amid renewed escalation

We express our solidarity with Lebanese workers and their families as renewed Israeli military attacks deepen the humanitarian, social and economic crisis in their country.

⚠️ The ITUC is deeply concerned by reports of civilian casualties and damage to homes, public services and infrastructure and reiterates that these can never be targeted.

🕊️ The ITUC reiterates its call for an immediate end to military actions that endanger civilians, respect for international humanitarian law and human rights, and unrestricted humanitarian access for affected populations.

🤝 The international trade union movement stands with Lebanese workers in their call for peace, social justice and recovery. The ITUC will continue to support its Lebanese affiliate, the National Federation of Workers and Employees Trade Unions in Lebanon (FENASOL), and to advocate for the protection of workers' rights, decent work and lasting peace in Lebanon and across the region.

🏘️ Workers and their families must be protected from the consequences of conflict and given the support needed to rebuild their lives and communities.

KUDHEIHA Workers Union joins the nation in mourning the heartbreaking loss of 16 innocent children following the tragic fire at Utumishi Girls Academy in Gilgil.

[Education International @eduint]

No child should ever be at risk in a place meant for learning, safety, and growth. This tragedy is a painful reminder of the urgent need for safe school infrastructure, emergency preparedness, and investment in education systems.

@EduintAfrica @thekenyatimes

[Education International @eduint]

“Wages have stagnated. Pensions stripped. Workers fired and rehired.”
Solent University is using current legislation to force staff into a sham subsidiary company, with the express intent of taking their pension away.”

This is happening in workplaces all over the country. @DrJoGrady stating the facts to reform’s @policylaila yesterday.

🚨BREAKING!

➡️Full statement: https://t.co/aJDhVnxU6G

[ITUC @ituc]

The ITUC welcomes the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice, confirming that the right to strike is protected under International Labour Organization Convention No. 87 on Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise.

🗣️ “We thank the world court for this advisory opinion. The Court has confirmed that international law supports the longstanding understanding shared not only by unions, but across large parts of the ILO system for decades." @luc_triangle ITUC General Secretary

[ITUC @ituc]

Update: The ITUC is furthermore appalled by reports and images showing detained flotilla participants being subjected to degrading and inhumane treatment. Such treatment is unacceptable and must be unequivocally condemned. The actions and public conduct of Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir in relation to the detainees are deeply irresponsible and reprehensible.

[ITUC @ituc]

The ITUC is greatly concerned by the interception by Israeli military forces of boats participating in the latest Global Sumud Flotilla humanitarian mission to Gaza.

🗣️ “This peaceful civil society mission reflects the growing desperation felt by people around the world in the face of the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.” @luc_triangle ITUC General Secretary
