Global Solidarity

Global Solidarity, the Irish Congress of Trade Unions work in solidarity with workers and trade unions around the world

[IPSC @ipsc48]

Thank you @BillyKelleherEU for pushing this issue. An EU-wide ban on illegal settlement goods is the aim - in Ireland the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill can help kickstart that process. We hope @fiannafailparty will continue to support the legislation despite its absence from the PFG.

Our letter to Tanaiste @simoncoveney Minister for Foreign affairs on need for international solidarity during the #COVID19 crisis https://t.co/1RwHFKvl15

[David Joyce @djoyce18]

We recently sent our concerns to the Colombian authorities #CERD19 https://t.co/jSZ72r4JLo

[David Joyce @djoyce18]

Interesting that issue of biz & human rights has come up in #CERD19 hearings. While we have a biz & human rights action plan, it is time for Ireland to move towards mandatory human rights due diligence, as many EU countries have already. Colombia’s record alone demands this..

[David Joyce @djoyce18]

Good to be watching the #CERD19 examination of Ireland this morning. @_IHREC hosting a live-streaming off the event from Geneva. @DeptJusticeIRL officials being examined. Anti racism committee to be formed and anti hate speech law proposals among topics being addressed
