Bangladesh Center for Workers Solidarity

The Bangladesh Center for Workers Solidarity (BCWS) was founded in 2000 by a group of former garment workers who sought to change the abusive working conditions faced by poor women workers who lack the power and knowledge to bargain for dignified treatment and decent wages. Since then, BCWS has advanced workers’ rights by strengthening the capacity of workers to advocate for themselves by conducting hundreds of trainings and documenting labor rights violations for dozens of investigative reports and international news stories. BCWS is highly regarded by workers in the country and by the international labor rights movement as well. The organization also conducts research in the garment industry, documenting labor violations and advocating for supply chain-wide solutions.

Led by the women and men who have worked in the fields, the FFP was the first comprehensive, fully functional model of the Worker-driven Social Responsibility paradigm.

Migrant Justice

• https://migrantjustice.net/

Migrant Justice’s mission is to build the voice, capacity, and power of the farmworker community and engage community partners to organize for economic justice and human rights. We gather the farmworker community to discuss and analyze shared problems and to envision collective solutions. Through this ongoing investment in leadership development, members deepen their skills in community education and organizing for long-term systemic change. From this basis our members have defined community problems as a denial of rights and dignity and have prioritized building a movement to secure these fundamental human rights to:  dignified work and quality housing, freedom of movement and access to transportation; freedom from discrimination, and access to health care.
