Brussels, 8 May 2008: In response to the deepening global food crisis the International Trade Union Confederation has called on governments and world institutions to take far-reaching measures to guarantee food security for all.
”This is an opportunity to completely revamp the failed policies which have led to this crisis, and it is vital that governments and the global institutions do more than just fiddle at the edges of a system which simply isn’t delivering for the world’s people”-- ITUC General Secretary Guy Ryder.

The Confederation calls on the workers of the world to unite in its ranks, to make of it the instrument needed to call forth a better future for them and for all humanity.
