Chile: major change for the key union which appoints a 33-year-old woman as its leader

ero, professor of philosophy, was appointed as the new President of the Workers’ United Center (CUT). This should give Chilean unionism a boost, as it is often criticized for its lack of representativeness and influence. The new leader wants to turn the union into a major stakeholder in terms of change and give workers satisfaction on historical claims such as strengthening collective bargaining. (Ref. 120535)
