BWI affiliates, partners, allies and friends, mark your calendars! In 2026, BWI will convene once again for its 6th World Congress—the highest decision-making body of our global union. This is where we come together to shape our future, strengthen our unity and solidarity, and advance the fight for workers’ rights worldwide. It’s Brazil’s turn to host! This vibrant country, with its rich history of workers’ struggles and victories, will set the stage for important discussions and bold actions that will define BWI for the years to come.
What’s at stake? In the face of a rapidly changing global landscape—from attacks on trade union rights and democratic institutions to economic inequality and the escalating climate crisis—BWI’s 6th World Congress will be a defining moment.
Together, we will:
- Deliberate and adopt a new strategic plan to tackle today’s challenges.
- Review and amend our statutes to strengthen our organisation
- Pass key resolutions that will shape our global campaigns and priorities
- Elect new leadership to further drive our global
union forward.
This is more than just a gathering—it’s a historic moment for trade unions worldwide to stand together, strategise, and lead the charge for justice, dignity, and decent work! Save the Date! 16-20 November 2026, São Paulo, Brazil.
