Empowering Transport Workers in Central and Eastern Europe (UNIONDRIVE)

Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) has been a strategic priority for the European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF) since the ETF Congress in Barcelona in 2017, a commitment that was reaffirmed by delegates at the Budapest Congress in 2022. Over the years, the ETF has invested considerable efforts in strengthening transport trade unions across the region through dedicated projects and organising initiatives. To support transport unions in this process, the ETF launched the EU co-funded project Empowering Transport Workers in Central and Eastern Europe (UNIONDRIVE). The project combines work on minimum wages with broader EU labour and social policy priorities.
