세계노총은 <우리는 2월 1일과 2일 회의를 통해 5월 6일부터 8일까지 이탈리아 로마에서 예정된 18차 총회를 <단결하라, 우리는 전진한다! 제국주의-자본주의자들의 야만에 맞서 우리의 시대적 요구를 쟁취하자!>는 구호 아래 조직할 것을 결의했다>고 밝혔다.
공고는 <18차 총회가 세계의 노동자들에게 매우 어려운 시기에 조직되고 있으나, 새로운 경제위기와 여러 나라들에서 실시되고 있는 반노동정책으로 팬데믹이 노동자들의 삶과 일에 심중한 영향을 끼지고 있는데 대해 심각성을 느끼고 있다>라며 <18차 총회는 매개 나라와 지역의 노동계급과 노동조합이 직면하고 있는 문제와 난관을 토론할 큰 기회가 될 것으로 기대한다>고 전했다.
이어서 <총회에서의 풍부하고 민주적인 토론으로부터 전투적인 결론과 방향을 도출하고, 우리는 그로부터 노동자들의 투쟁과 광범위한 노동계급적 공동체에 발전을 가져다줄 새로운 동력을 만들것이다>고 강조했다.

Dear colleagues, The WFTU Presidential Council which met on 1&2 February 2022 announced the organization of the 18thWorld Trade Union Congress in Rome, Italy, on 6, 7 and 8 of May 2022, under the slogan: “United, we continue! For the satisfaction of our contemporary needs, against imperialist-capitalist barbarity!” The 18th Congress of the WFTU is being organized in a very difficult period for workers of the world, who are heavily affected by the consequences of the Pandemic on their life and jobs, by the new economic crisis and anti-workers measures taken in most countries. The 18th Congress will give a great opportunity to trade unionists to discuss about the problems and various challenges faced by the working class of their countries and regions. The rich, democratic discussions of the Congress, the militant decisions and directions it will adopt, will give new momentum to the workers’ struggles and the development of our big, class-oriented trade union family. Because of the restrictions due to the Pandemic, the Congress will take place with both physical and virtual participation. The main criteria for the physical participation of the delegates are the following: The organizations must be active members of the WFTU that struggle with the banners and the goals of the WFTU and support the WFTU campaigns and initiatives in their country and internationally. They must delegate working women and young trade unionists so that they help in the renewal in practice. Two (2) delegates from each country, two (2) delegates from each TUI and two (2) delegates from each Regional Office can physically participate in the Congress. For registration or any further information please send to: athens@wftucentral.org; gensec@wftucentral.org Let us all united prepare a successful 18th World Trade Union Congress, a historic crossroad of the struggles, goals and aspirations of the world working class!
