Securing Economic Rights For Informal Women Workers – Newsletter Issue 1

By on

Securing Economic Rights for Informal Women Workers is a multifaceted project supported by a Funding Leadership and Opportunities for Women (FLOW) grant from the Government of the Netherlands. The project seeks to strengthen the organizing and leadership capacity of women working in informal employment so that they gain economic self-reliance and increase their participation in politics, governance and management.

This newsletter provides updates for 2012 on the first two project elements:

  1. Economic and employment rights, advancing domestic workers’ leadership.
  2. Developing leadership and business skills for informal women workers in fair trade.
