Unions are illegal in many countries. In countries where they aren't illegal, the rights to strike are severely limited.
I think we're both saying the same thing. You're answering my sarcasm with yours.
Unions do not SOLVE problems, they MAKE problems. They cause entire industries to be destroyed, like steel in the United States.
If you're serious about a worldwide union, I would answer that professional certification ( Oracle, MCSE, MCDBA, DB2 certification, etc.) is about the only way you'll get any kind of "worldwide professional association". That or something like DPMA or PMI which is way too generic to be useful.
As for fundraising, I'm broke every month paying my monthly bills, so you might as well panhandle for it.
