The Second World Congress of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) will be held in Vancouver, B.C., from Monday, June 21 to Friday, June 25.

RadioLabour will provide daily reports directly from the Congress floor.  It will also conduct an online forum where you can participate in discussions about the Congress and the issues facing the international labour movement.

The daily reports will be available on:

•    The RadioLabour website www.radiolabour.net
•    Facebook (search for “radiolabour”)
•    iTunes (search for “radiolabour5”)
•    and RSS feeds.

Up-to-date news bulletins will be provided on Twitter (follow: "radiolabour").

The daily reports will feature news about the issues the ITUC is addressing, results of the elections, interviews with labour leaders from all around the world, and more.

The special forum about the ITUC Congress will be held on RadioLabour’s forum system “Akcio”.  Participants from around the world will be able to discuss the issues, ask for specialized information from delegates attending the conference, and more.

The forum has been supplied by Akcio International – an NGO of labour educators and technology designers dedicated to creating technology which can be used by labour unions, especially labour unions in developing countries.

Daily reportage from the ITUC Congress has been made possible by a grant from CUPE – The Canadian Union of Public Employees.
