The Informal Workers Health Project

This short report provides a summary of the interventions developed by WIEGO and its partners for Rockefeller Foundation’s Informal Workers Health Programme.

The Programme’s aim was to develop innovative approaches to address the health needs of informal workers.

WIEGO’s interventions included an analysis of:

1. the nature of the health problems prioritized by informal workers;
2. the barriers they experience when attempting to access health systems; and
3. the constraints and opportunities presented by the context in which they work and live.

The report concludes with a reflection on the aspects of the interventions which WIEGO and its partners continue to take forward.
