The solidarity visit is part of efforts to build greater understanding and cooperation, as well as develop long-lasting working relationships. This important act of solidarity by Caribbean young workers will provide an opportunity for these workers to act as a “multiplier” by returning and reporting back to others, about the situation on the ground – providing facts and dispelling myths. In addition, the visit is intended to provide practical opportunities for young worker activists who work in key (sub)sectors:
- to better understand the trade union movement in Haïti
- to share their own experiences and exchange knowledge and skills
- to suggest ways to integrate outreach to youth and student movements as part of PSI’s broader campaigning
- to integrate the perspective of young workers into PSI’s sectoral work
The visit will include workshop sessions and visits to selected workplaces.
Theme: “Strong-minded youth for a better future”
Sub-theme: “Responsibility and commitment of young workers: essential elements for trade union renewal”
