The International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWP) is an annual conference attended by communist and workers' parties from several countries. It originated in 1998 when the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) invited communist and workers' parties to participate in an annual conference where parties could gather to share their experiences and issue a joint declaration. The most recent and 23rd meeting of the IMCWP is being held in October 2023 in Izmir and hosted by the Communist Party of Turkey (modern).

Organization

The Working Group (WG) of International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWP) is composed of Communist Parties throughout the world. The task of the working group is to prepare and organize the International Meetings of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWPs).

The meetings are held annually, with participants from all around the globe. Additionally, there are occasionally extraordinary meetings such as the meeting in Damascus in September 2009 on "Solidarity with the heroic struggle of the Palestinian people and the other people in Middle East". In December 2009, the communist and workers' parties agreed to the creation of the International Communist Review, which is published annually in English and Spanish and has a website.

The 23rd International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties

The 23rd International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties (IMCWP) begins today in Izmir, Turkey, hosted by the country's Communist Party (TKP).

    Of course it's overly simplistic to say "capitalism is killing us" but sometimes I really do get the feeling that young people are coming into the world aware that they aren't wanted, "they" referring to the parts of a person that if not cultivated leave you unable to feel happiness.

    Not trying to explain your friend but it was the story for a trans friend who recently told me about her mental state when we were roommates before she had even acknowledged that she was trans. It's like people are born allergic to salt and told they have to work in the salt mines. If you aren't given an alternative to being stuck in conditions that make you sick and miserable, what is a person supposed to do?
