 Continuing the series of interviews conducted during the IWA Centenary and 28th

Congress, we speak to one of three Irish comrades sent as delegates by the
anarcho-syndicalist organization Organise! (Get Organized!), founded in 1984 and
emerged through the union of different Irish anarchist organizations. ---- A few
hours after the interview, the sections of the AIT present at the Congress
unanimously approved their adherence to our anarcho-syndicalist International. So
we welcome our AIT colleagues from all over Ireland. Health!. ---- Click on

colleagues sent as delegates to the Congress by the Irish organization "Organise!"
Below we attach a brief analysis of the first session of the International
Congress, where the accession of the Irish anarcho-syndicalist organization was
discussed:

"The 28th Congress of the AIT took place from December 9 to 11 in Alcoy, Spain.

The IWA Congresses are held every three years: the last one took place in 2019 in
Melbourne, Australia. There we decided that the Centennial Congress would be held
in Spain, hosted by our Section, the CNT-AIT. The comrades from Spain chose the
city of Alcoy to host the celebration. This election was significant, as we will
explain later, and it turned out to be an excellent place to hold our Congress.

Delegations from most AIT Sections arrived (although some delegates were not
allowed to travel to the Schengen area). We were received with the greatest
camaraderie and hospitality by our hosts in Spain, who had also prepared a series
of events to accompany the Congress.

Before the Congress there were concerts, book presentations and a visit with
historical information on the Oil Revolution. For those who don't know, this is a
very significant event in labor history in 1873, when the workers of the Spanish
Regional Federation of the International Workers' Association staged a revolt
and, for a time, took control of the city before to be brutally repressed. Such
events were part of the rich legacy of the libertarian labor movement in Spain,
which ultimately led to the founding of the CNT in 1910.

As usual, the agenda of the Congress was quite extensive and contained numerous
items related to issues such as improving the internal functioning of the
International, welcoming new members into the Federation, creating and/or
presenting the work of groups hands-on work and projects, discussion, job
rotation and much more.

One of the first items on the Agenda concerned membership, so we are pleased to
announce that our colleagues from Ireland, from "Organise" have joined as Friends
of the AIT. We look forward to a fruitful cooperation."
