| Resumen: |
In this book, the research WIEGO has coordinated with many partners on the financing of social protection for workers in informal employment is woven into a story on the power of ideas. Some of these ideas harm the cause of realizing fair social protection for workers in informal employment. As these ideas are currently being promoted by influential global actors such as international financial institutions and ministries of finance, there is an urgency to critically investigate them, to understand how they impact workers, to what extent they are based on evidence, and, ultimately, how they can be challenged by workers and their allies. |
