Liyannaj Kont Pwofitasyon, or LKP, is an umbrella group of approximately fifty trade unions and social movements in Guadeloupe. It spearheaded the general strike beginning in January 2009.[1]
Name edit
The name of the umbrella group comes from the local Antillean Creole language.[1] The Liyannaj Kont Pwofitasyon (LKP) is translated to "Stand up against exploitation" in English or the "Collectif contre l'exploitation outrancière" in French.[2]
