This project aims to unite all regional trade unions in China through the IPDPoD - Information Portal Development Platform. Initiated by ACFTU, the goal is to enable base-level trade unions to create their own websites easily using open source solutions like Zope. The initiative addresses the lack of resources and technology at various union levels and strives to consolidate information and resources for labor movements under one platform. By 2005, we aim to have over 14 dynamic websites operating smoothly on the new system.
