2010 was a big year for UNI Global Union as we celebrated our 10^th birthday, held a remarkable world Congress in Nagasaki and started Breaking Through with all of you all over the world.



We thank all members for their participation in the work of the organisation in 2010 and wish you a Happy New Year!



In 2011, UNI will be “Breaking Through” to change the rules of the game in the global economy and in the global labour market. We have a fast-changing workforce; services are the new powerhouse for jobs. Our aim is to organize that new workforce and bring dignity to the workplace.



The financial crisis has wreaked havoc on the world’s working people: we have record unemployment and savings and homes lost. We have to build a new global economy that is fair and sustainable and meets the needs of working people and their families, not just CEOs and bankers. In 2011, we will work with you to rebuild a global economy that is sustainable and based on values of solidarity and social responsibility and not the greed that brought the world financial system to disaster.



We are faced with a new global economic reality and a new services workforce. In 2011 we will work creatively to find new solutions for our members.



We will work with you to achieve peace and ensure equal opportunities for all workers.



We look forward to Breaking Through with you in 2011. Together, we can change the rules of the game.



The UNI head office in Nyon will close at 17:00 on the 24^th of December. We will reopen on the 3^rd of January.
