STTK joins ILO Global Coalition for Social Justice

The Finnish Confederation of Professionals (STTK) joins ILO Global Coalition for Social Justice.

The ILO Global Coalition for Social Justice serves as a platform to generate political commitments, investments and concrete actions that support social justice in alignment with national priorities.

Our world faces challenges to social justice, stemming from overlapping crises and long-term structural economic transformations. Working poverty, child labour, youth unemployment, and informal work underscore the urgency of addressing inequalities and ensuring decent work globally. STTK wants to be part of the ILO led Global Coalition for Social Justice to tackle these issues, stresses Antti Palola, president of STTK and member of the executive bureau of ITUC.

The Coalition intervenes by enhancing advocacy, promoting policy coherence, and generating knowledge. Through cooperation and partnerships the coalition mobilizes resources to address critical issues and evolves activities over time to best serve the interlinked causes of social justice and decent work.

The Coalition has been set up as a key and timely initiative of ILO Secretary General Gilbert Houngbo.
