The International Peoples' Assembly (IPA) is an international network of socialist and labor organizations.

History

In 2015, the Landless Workers' Movement (MST) created the Dilemmas of Humanity conference, which would later become the IPA.[1][2]

In 2019, the IPA held its first global convention in Caracas, Venezuela,[3][better source needed] where attendees agreed to "pronounce ourselves in defense of the Bolivarian Revolution and the legitimate and constitutional President, Nicolás Maduro".[4][better source needed] In 2020, IPA and other leftist organizations held a "International Week of Anti-Imperialist Struggle" that lasted from May 25 to May 30.[5] In 2023, the IPA held a "brigade" in Havana, Cuba, in opposition to the US embargo of Cuba.[6]

International People's Media Network

IPA partners include its International People's Media Network (IPMN) and its International Collective for Political Education (ICPE), the former and later previously described as IPAs "Coordinating Committee."

IPMN is a self-described "network of independent progressive media projects from across the globe seeking to collectively redefine journalism and the media in a time of global crisis"

This media network includes People's Dispatch, Dongsheng, Brasil de Fato, BreakThrough News, Pan African TV, ARG, and Madaar.

Additional media network members include:[7][8]
