WIEGO (Women in Informal Employment: Globalizing and Organizing), in conjunction with organisations of waste collectors, supportive researchers and NGOs, has initiated a project that aims to facilitate international networking and solidarity amongst organizations of informal waste collectors, with a view to increasing their visibility and voice internationally. This includes convening an international conference in Latin America in September 2007. At present the Steering Comittee is identifying and recording information on democratic, member-based organisations of informal waste collectors in different regions of the world. This includes worker cooperatives, associations and trade unions organized locally, nationally or regionally. The Steering Committee is also interested in identifying and collecting information on NGOs that support and work with groups of informal waste collectors.
