The Secretary-General of Socialist International, Madam Benedicta Lasi, has paid a courtesy visit to the Organisation of African Trade Union Unity (OATUU) Secretariat on 25th August, 2023 in Accra, Ghana. In a warm atmosphere, the Secretary-General of OATUU, Mr. Arezki Mezhoud welcomed Madam Lasi alongside other members of the Executive body. The meeting marked a significant moment as it provided both parties with an opportunity to explore common ground and lay a foundation for prospective collaboration.
The discussions that transpired during the meeting served as an invaluable platform for both parties to exchange ideas on labor issues to socio-economic development. The exchange of insights and experiences between the organisations fostered a holistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead and further strengthened the resolve to cooperate in the pursuit of shared goals.
The Socialist International is a global organisation, with origins tracing back to the early international organisations of the labour movement.
