Info

The number of female members in some of the unions is high but the number of women who are participating actively in Trade Unions or play a leading role is almost negligible. Being a member and being a leader should be promoted among women in order to fight for women-specific rights like equal opportunities and treatment or maternity leave. Co-operatives or saving and credit groups are another form of organizing which can give advantages to the members. Especially in rural areas this type of organizing can be useful. For instance, selling products through a co-operative can give more profit than selling it on individual basis. The opportunities for getting credit are easier. As a facilitator you should check the possibilities for your participants to become a member of an organization before you do the session. It is very useful to have some names of contact persons and phone numbers and addresses. In this way you can give them very practical information about where to go in their vicinity.
