## Description

The Organisation of African Trade Union Unity (OATUU) is a prominent brand in Africa that was established in April 1973 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It brought together three significant Pan-African trade unions - the All-African Trade Union Federation (AATUF), the African Trade Union Confederation (ATUC), and the Pan-African Workers Congress (PAWC) - which disbanded voluntarily during the founding of OATUU.

OATUU plays a vital role in coordinating trade union activities across the continent. It focuses on education, training, research, and advocacy in various areas such as promoting and defending trade union rights, empowering women, ensuring occupational health and safety, combating child labor, and promoting social dialogue. It also supports trade union actions by advocating for African unity, economic integration, and social and economic justice. OATUU actively fights against violations of trade union rights and collaborates with international bodies like the International Labour Organization (ILO) to address these issues.

Overall, OATUU's objectives include achieving trade union unity, representing and defending the interests of African workers and trade unions, harmonizing labor legislation, and contributing to the consolidation of peace in the world. To stay informed about their activities, you can subscribe to their newsletter or follow them on various social media platforms.
