We aim to support imprisoned fellow workers by being a point of contact and source of support on the outside to facilitate prisoners organising on the inside. We know that prisons punish those that resist, which is why we are here on the out to make your struggles visible. Together we are stronger! In North America, members have organised and participated in prison shut downs, strikes, and collective actions to win victories in stopping state torture, medical neglect and more. The IWW has branches all over Wales, Scotland, Ireland & England that will join the struggle. Our motto is “An injury to one is an injury to all”.

IWOC is also fighting against prison expansion and the increased capitalist exploitation of prison labour, as well as against IPP sentences and other forms of injustice in the prison system.
