The BWI is the Global Union Federation grouping free and democratic unions with members in the Building, Building Materials, Wood, Forestry and Allied sectors.
BWI invites you to its 10th “Workers’ Voices Webinar" on Climate Change and the Forestry Sector. We will discuss how climate change affects forest workers and their working conditions, how trade unions can and should respond to climate change, workers’ approaches to how their work can contribute to combat the climate crisis, and main elements of a just transition to a green future.
We invite you to be part of our Global Alliance on Healthy and Safe Workplaces Campaign taking place from now up to International Workers Memorial Day on 28 April 2021. Under this campaign, we ask that you negotiate with employers in workplaces that you organise to sign a declaration jointly with you recognising the importance of Healthy and Safe Workplaces.
The Building and Wood Workers International (BWI) and the Confederation of Trade Unions of Myanmar (CTUM) appeal to your kind hearts to donate generously to the “Myanmar Strike Fund” intended to sustain and strengthen the Burmese trade unionists’ struggle for democracy against the country’s brutal military junta.
