Join us at international conference to help build solidarity

INTERNATIONAL solidarity conference –the NEU’s largest annual international event – will take place on 1 July at the NEU’s HQ, Hamilton House.

The NEU has a proud history of international solidarity and leads a broad programme of work, alongside sister unions and partner organisations, to protect and promote children’s, trade union and human rights.

A strong and growing network of international activists – led by international solidarity officers (ISOs) in NEU districts, and the international organising forum comprising ISOs elected at regional and national level – ensures that solidarity work is being led by members in every region and nation of the union. This conference is an opportunity to celebrate and grow this work.

The conference will discuss key global issues, such as defending women’s rights, protecting education in emergencies, and resisting authoritarianism. Conference delegates will hear from world-renowned campaigners and human rights defenders in workshops, panel discussions and plenary sessions, and they will leave understanding how to lead action locally that builds meaningful solidarity internationally. n To register your attendance, visit neu.org.uk/ learning-and-events
