Arab World
WE MOVE THE WORLD
ITF Arab World stands up for the rights of over 500,000 transport workers across the region. Unions are at the forefront of the democratic transformation in the region. Working alongside 55 unions in the Arab World, we work to advance trade union rights across the region, including progressing the right of all workers to organise, collectively bargain and form and join independent trade unions.
We are raising the voice of workers and uniting unions in action to enhance and defend the rights of all transport workers and collectively face down any attacks on trade unionists in the region.
