HIGHLIGHTS

From Africa to Asia to Latin America, the world's 2 billion informal workers are suffering some of the earliest and most devastating effects of the coronavirus. As reported by the media, the immediate impact of the lockdown measures implemented across the globe has been devastating for street vendors. With cities deserted or closed, street vendors say that, if they are not able to work, their families will simply die of hunger. Street vendors' protests were reported from México to Guatemala to Paraguay to Colombia, demanding financial support from their governments or safety protection in their workplace. 

With cities (In Perú, México, Honduras, USA, India, and Uganda) resorting to street vendors relocations, evictions, vending bans, police fines, and blind police brutality; human rights advocates urged governments that basic human rights should be at the centre of their lockdown measures. Melody Ndawana from the Zimbabwe Chamber of Informal Economy Association (ZCIEA) shared that “We thought after the lockdown we could return to our workplaces but now local authorities are destroying them,”  

Media reports from the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) accounted for more than 200 economic measures throughout the region to protect informal workers including street vendors. Pope Francis said it might be 'time to consider a universal basic wage

A victory for the sector was recorded in South Africa, where spazas, food hawkers with permits, got the green light to trade during lockdown measures.  Stories of solidarity and innovation. came from Spain where street vendors helped to deliver food and medical supplies, and others joined forces with a local clothing company to sew masks and aprons for health workers, and from Malaysia where street vendors came up with ways to work during lockdown with a drive-through, pack and pick, and e-hailing service. 

As per media reports, the Covid-19 impact on this sector is exacerbating issues of food security for low-income households that depend on street vendors and has increased the vulnerability of migrant workers, (internal and cross-border) with many of them working as street vendors. The ILO chief said that the COVID-19 impact could cause the equivalent of 195 million job losses, and with a warning of economic devastation for developing countries, the African leaders highlighted the impact this could have on the informal sector.  António Guterres UN Secretary-General said during the launch of the Report on Socio-Economic Impacts of Covid-19 "The recovery from the COVID-19 crisis must lead to a different economy".
