We Are Workers Too! Organizing Home-Based Workers in the Global Economy

By , on August 01, 2010

This short manual aims to help home-based workers, no matter where in the world, to know more about:

  • their skills and value, not just to their families but to society at large and to the economy, even at a global level;
  • their status as workers, and the fact that, like all other workers in the world, they have rights, even if many others do not recognize this yet;
  • how they can get together with other home-based workers to get more recognition and improve their situation.
