We are pleased to report that ACFO is joining Public Service International (PSI), an international labour non-government organization (NGO) founded on the principle of solidarity between public sector workers throughout the world.
In the face of widespread cuts to the Public Service, ACFO’s Board recognized the need to increase the Association’s international presence with respect to promoting investment in strong public services and increase ACFO’s profile in connecting local issues to global action.
