Community Action Tenants Union is a national tenants' union in Ireland. Established in 2019,[1] it is a mass membership organisation of "renters, council tenants, mortgage holders and people in emergency & precarious living situations".[2]

CATU is affiliated to ACORN International.[3]

Structure

CATU members are organised in local branches across the island of Ireland,[4] with committees elected by local members. A national committee coordinates the work of local branches.[5] CATU organises campaigns at local and national level, and its work is grounded in principles of direct action.[6][7] Modelled after other ACORN International affiliated tenants' unions such as Scottish Living Rent, CATU was influenced by the work of the National Association of Tenants Organisations (NATO),[8] which represented tenants in Ireland in the sixties and the seventies, famously leading a national rent strike from 1970 to 1973.[9]
