Leadership for Informal Women Workers in Fair TradeThe work of women informal workers remains undervalued, unrecognized and underpaid. It is still perceived as a secondary activity even when it is the main source of family income.

 

Informal women workers themselves remain unaware of their rights, largely unrepresented in consultations and policy forums, and under-represented in governance structures. There is a need for a change in positioning to recognize women as skilled workers making a significant contribution to their household and national economies.
