international solidarity
Cross-border mutual support
International solidarity is the principle that people across national boundaries share common interests and should support one another's struggles.
The concept appears frequently in labor movements, human rights advocacy, and political organizing: The union called for international solidarity with striking workers abroad.
It implies that justice in one place connects to justice everywhere—that borders shouldn't limit moral obligation or collective action.
