Union Convention: Day 1 Recap Here we go

We’re kicking off the union convention with prominent political figures. Economy Minister Robert Habeck and DGB Chair Yasmin Fahimi are calling for a bridge electricity price, as proposed by IG Metall. The delegates are getting ready to shape the future of IG Metall for the next four years.

Five days of democracy in action: over the course of five days, the elected delegates at the IG Metall Trade Union Congress will set the agenda for the next four years. A new executive board will also be elected—but not until Monday (October 23). Distinguished guests attended the opening ceremony: Federal Minister of Economic Affairs Robert Habeck and the chair of the German Trade Union Federation (DGB), Yasmin Fahimi. The call for a “bridge electricity price” and the fight against hate and incitement were the dominant themes.

We’re covering the union convention every day with our film crew and summarizing: How were the debates conducted? What were the most important topics? What decisions were made for the future of IG Metall? See for yourself.
