The Global Labour Program – Platform for Organising Workers for Empowerment and Recognition (GLP-POWER) aims to promote innovative methods for enhancing solidarity, inclusion, and visibility of workers’ causes. This initiative focuses on assessing and promoting new and innovative modes of organizing marginalized informal/precarious workers to enhance their agency, effective bargaining power, regional solidarity, inclusion, and visibility.

“CONNECT” Platform

The “CONNECT” online platform, which includes a web portal and mobile app, has evolved through a participatory process involving informal workers. This platform provides informal and precarious workers a safe space to share, exchange, collaborate, and work towards problem-solving. It offers an accessible civic space and psychosocial support, enhancing inclusion.

Program envisage that the CONNECT platform will help increase the bargaining power of informal workers, enabling them to access fair and decent work, thereby affirming their life and dignity.
