On November 2, the International Day for Women in the Informal Economy, in honour of Sister Ela R. Bhatt (Elaben), founder of the Self-Employed Women’s Association (SEWA) in India, unions across Asia-Pacific region stand in solidarity with women workers in the informal economy. Women workers call for Recognition, Representation and Respect & Dignity!
Unions are committed to continue Elaben’s lifelong commitment to organize women workers, actively building their collective power as workers in a trade union to exercise their collective bargaining power.
