Asociación Internacional de Trabajadores (AIT)

The Asociación Internacional de Trabajadores (AIT), or International Workers' Association, is a global federation of autonomous, worker-oriented unions and organizations that promote direct action, workers’ rights, and socialist principles. Founded in 1920, it advocates for revolutionary labor movements, emphasizing self-management and workers’ control of workplaces. The AIT operates independently of governments and political parties, aiming to strengthen solidarity among workers worldwide and inspire social change through collective action. Its overarching goal is to create a more just and equitable society by empowering workers to directly influence their working conditions and social structures.
