Sally Roever, WIEGO’s Urban Research Director, gave this presentation at a dialogue on formalizing the informal economy in Montevideo, Uruguay on October 30, 2013. In it, she argues that formalization must be a gradual, ongoing process which recognizes the contributions and the basic rights of vendors, and which considers both the costs and the benefits for all partners.
