The International Labour Organization’s World of Work Summit commences today June 14 and 15, under the theme of “Social Justice for All”.
The Summit will bring together 17 Heads of State and Government, the ILO’s Director-General, and high-level representatives from the United Nations, other international organizations, and employers’ and workers’ organizations. There will also be an address from the UN’s Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres.
Participants will discuss policies and actions that can advance social justice and highlight the key role of social justice in creating a more sustainable and equitable world.
In addition to the individual leaders’ addresses, the agenda includes four high-level panels focusing on different issues relevant to expanding social justice. Panellists will explain their visions of, and priorities for, social justice, and share the actions they are taking.
