Solidarity is a Trotskyist organisation in Australia. The group is a member of the International Socialist Tendency[1] and has branches in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide and Perth.[2] The organisation was formed in 2008 from a merger between groups emerging from the International Socialist tradition: the International Socialist Organisation, Socialist Action Group and Solidarity.

Solidarity argues they are "committed to building social movements and the wider left" and "throwing [themselves] into struggles for social justice."[3] They publish a monthly magazine, Solidarity.[4]
