#WORLD #WORLDWIDE #SPAIN #ANARCHISM #LIBRARY #News #Journal #Update - (en) #Spain: C.N.T closes its XII Congress (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 Today, Tuesday, December 6, the XII Congress that took place in Canovelles

(Catalonia) ended. ---- More than 200 delegates from 42 different unions, of
which make up the Confederation, have come from very different places in the
Iberian Peninsula. ---- The Congress has passed smoothly, and a C.N.T. more
cohesive around its aims of social transformation. At all times the unanimous
solidarity with the compañeras convicted in the case of Suiza (Xixón) has been
present, who may soon find their bones in jail for simply practicing unionism in
defense of a fired worker. ---- During the five days of the Congress, papers on
Trade Union Action, Culture and Communication, Social Action, Organic
Regulations, Heritage and New Technologies have been debated. The seven
consolidation commissions that have functioned have facilitated reaching
agreements, since the C.N.T. It foresees in its congress methodology these
mechanisms that facilitate collective consensus.

It has been agreed to create tools at the confederation level to resist long
strikes that may arise in labor disputes. The organic regulations have been
fine-tuned, and lines of work have been established for international
coordination through the C.I.T. (International Labor Confederation). The issue of
care is also incorporated to ensure effective participation in all types of
organic meetings.

As well as the creation of training tools that allow us to intertwine unionism
with the protection of the environment and prepare ourselves for the scenario of
energy and climate crisis that is coming.

Finally, the plenary of the Congress has agreed that the current Permanent
Secretariat based in Madrid continue to exercise its functions for one more year.

The Secretary General Antonio Diaz of the CNT has conveyed a few words of
congratulations to the attendees for the work and effort made throughout the
congress, giving way to an emotional closing with the anarchist hymn "To the
barricades".

Challenges that the CNT faces after its XII Congress

The new challenges, as stated by some of the affiliates, are to build, as the
motto of the Congress says, that "new trade unionism" and put it at the service
of the working class to turn the CNT into a key tool to gain strength in the
positions of work and at the same time continue to grow in affiliation and militancy.
It is very important that the CNT deconstructs hierarchical and authoritarian
practices and manages to create spaces where they are applied so that people know
how to use them in assemblies and horizontally.
As an imperative, it is fundamental that the CNT maintains its tactics,
principles and goals and achieves the integral liberation of the human being.
