Under a global system that prioritizes corporate profits over all else, rampant human rights abuses are the price we have been forced to pay for the 1% to amass enormous wealth. As we face increasing corporate capture, oligarchy, and fascism at home and abroad, we must continue to organize and mobilize in solidarity with one another. This Human Rights Day, we will come together to highlight some of our local Washington organizers and their efforts to build a world that prioritizes working people and the planet over corporate profits.

Come learn how you can get involved in the fight for justice and participate in shaping the future of the trade justice movement

Why Attend?
Not only will you gain invaluable insights from these organizers above, but you will also have the opportunity to directly shape WFTC’s organizing work through brainstorming what collective resistance will look like in the new year. And, of course, you’ll gain special insider information on what’s coming up on the trade horizon.  We would love for you to join and represent our community in the movement for trade justice!
