Confederación Interamericana de Trabajadores (CIT) was an international trade union confederation, founded in Lima, Peru, in 1948.
[1] The CIT was formed at a congress in Lima, Peru organized by the Confederación de Trabajadores del Perú (CTP).
A second congress was held in September 1949 which called on CTAL-affiliated unions to secede from that organization and join it.
They also resolved to develop contacts with European and other trade unions in order to found a new world labor organization.
In January 1951 the CIT dissolved itself to become the regional affiliate of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, ORIT.
