Events and meetings

One of ACTRAV’s main events is the bi-annual International Workers’ Symposium. This is a meeting gathering trade unionists and other specialists from all over the world to discuss a given topic.

In addition ACTRAV organizes other events, meetings and workshops, both at headquarters and in the field, focusing on the areas of activities of the bureau.

ACTRAV is at the service of workers representatives as they participate in different meetings at the ILO. Colleagues do also assist in preparing case files that will help worker representatives develop their positions and arguments for the Annual Conference of the ILO, the Governing Body, regional and sectoral conferences and in the Office's various activities.

  1. Trade Union Meeting of Experts on the Post-2015 Development Agenda

    In the year 2000, the United Nations adopted the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) as the main development framework for the international system. A set of 8 goals were adopted and 2015 was earmarked as the target date for their attainment. As the target date for the achievement of the MDGs approaches, the UN has initiated discussions on the Post-2015 development compact which will replace the MDGs.
