The All Nepal Federation of Trade Unions (ANTUF) (Nepali: अखिल नेपाल टेूड युनियन महासंघ) is a national trade union center representing workers in Nepal. The Federation had its origins in the Nepalese Civil War and was created by activists from the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist). Following the peace accords in 2006, the ANTUF was founded in 2007. The ANTUF is made up of 35 affiliated organisations.[2] In January 2019, following the creation of the Nepal Communist Party, talks commenced for a merger between the ANTUF and the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT).[3]
