The Movement for Social Justice (MSJ) is a democratic socialist and social-democratic political party in Trinidad and Tobago. Its logo is the Scales of Justice. Its current leader is David Abdulah, a former government senator and general secretary of the Oilfields Workers' Trade Union.
The MSJ party was part of the People's Partnership alliance for the 2010 general elections, but didn't contest under its own name and has since parted ways.[1][2][3][4]
In October 2012 the MSJ launched a think-tank called the Foundation for Social Justice, which aims to promote ideals of social justice, equity and participatory democracy through seminars, research, publication, advocacy and campaigns.[5]
