International Workers' Association

The International Workers' Association (IWA) is a global federation of trade unions and workers' organizations that promotes workers' rights and social justice. Founded in 1922, it emphasizes the importance of direct action, solidarity among workers, and the fight against capitalism. The IWA advocates for self-management, mutual aid, and democratic decision-making within labor movements. By connecting unions and groups from various countries, it aims to empower workers worldwide and support struggles against exploitation and inequality. The IWA is rooted in anarcho-syndicalism, focusing on grassroots activism rather than political party involvement.
