EDUCATIONAL PRINCIPLES

Following a two year review of education and many discussions amongst affiliates the GFTU Educational Trust has agreed a strategic set of principles that will underpin our education delivery for the coming period. These have been supported by the GFTU Executive Committee and the affiliates’ education officers attending our regular meetings.

Our principles are to:

Provide and develop an understanding of the political and economic context - political economy, labour and capital within which Trade Unions operate; Provide and develop an understanding of the political and economic context which has shaped, and which continues to shape, the historical development of Trade Unions; Provide the skills and knowledge needed to develop confident and informed activists in order to build collective power; Be informed by our commitment to the values of equality, diversity, and inclusion; Be informed by our commitment to social justice, empowering communities, and internationalism. The principles will be applied to all courses and events whatever their subject matter.
