Global Unions: the name "Global Unions" is used for the major institutions of the international trade union movement. Global Unions comprises:

1. the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), which represents most national trade union centres. Most individual unions relate through their national union centre to the ICFTU which has 231 affiliated organisations in 150 countries and territories on all five continents, with a membership of 158 million.

2. the ten Global Union Federations (GUFs),the international representatives of unions organising in specific industry sectors or occupational groups (EI, ICEM, IFJ, ITGLWF, PSI, ITF, IFBWW, IMF, IUF, & UNI - for full names, see www.global-unions.org.

3. the Trade Union Advisory Committee to the OECD (TUAC)

An individual union will usually belong to a national union centre in its country, which will then affiliate to a world body such as the ICFTU. The same individual union will also usually affiliate to a GUF relevant to the industry where it has members. The ICFTU and ITGLWF (International Textile, Garment and Leather Workers’ Federation) are the Global Unions organisations most closely involved with the campaign at the international level.

Oxfam International is a confederation of 12 organizations working together in more than 100 countries to find lasting solutions to poverty, suffering and injustice. To do this, the Oxfams are working to become part of a movement capable of global responses to global issues. We seek increased worldwide public understanding that economic and social justice is crucial to sustainable development. On this, we aim to become a global campaigning force and to promote the awareness and motivation that comes with global citizenship. The Oxfams seek to shift public opinion on poverty, economic inequity and hunger until equity is given the same priority as economic growth.
