Over 600 trade union leaders from 50 European countries are set to convene in Belfast, Northern Ireland, for UNI Europa’s 6th Conference. The event will take place from March 25 to March 27, 2025, at the International Convention Centre. This gathering marks the largest European union event in Northern Ireland's history and coincides with the fifth anniversary of Brexit on February 1.
Oliver Roethig, Regional Secretary of UNI Europa, stated: “At a time of skyrocketing corporate profits, deepening inequality and an extreme right threatening democratic values, the European trade union movement must rally together to build worker power. United, we will move forward through collective bargaining, helping workers win a real say and more pay. There is no better place to move this mission forward than Belfast, with its rich trade union history.”
The conference will operate under the theme ‘Real Say, More Pay’ and aims to set a strategic direction for UNI Europa over the next five years while electing new leadership. The program includes speakers from across Europe and discussions on various issues such as strengthening collective bargaining and addressing workplace challenges like Artificial Intelligence.
