APPEAL

Independent IT Workers Union (Kyiv) and the International Scientific Consortium IMC, given the negative global transformations in the labor market and the need to introduce new development drivers to protect the rights, interests and freedoms of workers in different areas of the world economy in conditions of economic uncertainty, financial vulnerability and global environmental and climate challenges, initiate the creation of the International Corporation (Hub) for Sustainable Development Project Management (hereinafter – Project).

The core element of the Project is theDigital Institutional Platform, which, provided it belongs to the International Trade Union Movement (Hub-member unions), will allow socio-economic processes to be managed "from below and from within," according toU.S. President Joe Biden's March 31 speech to unions at the Carpenters Training Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

This approach enables:

- to create the institutions and platforms for the Digital Society, according to the report of UN Secretary General António Guterres (https://undocs.org/ru/A/74/821);

- to overcome the socio-economic crisis processes by switching to a digital economy;

- to ensure that trade unions play a leading role in managing processes aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and building more equitable societies;

- to ensure the development and protection of labor law as the foundation of social justice and solidarity in the face of globalization, innovation, and global challenges.

On the basis of the above, we appeal to you and invite you:

- to jointly prepare an Appeal to the governments of the countries on the establishment of the International Corporation (Hub) for Sustainable Development Project Management (a draft of the Declaration is attached);

- to submit nominations to the Working Group on the Project implementation.

Materials for processing by the Working Group can be found at: www.c3n.info.

Appendix: Rationale, Draft International Declaration.
