A Space for Worker Voice.
The Inclusive Labor Institute (ILI) is a worker-led resource hub dedicated to understanding the conditions and experiences of the essential workers who power the informal economy and the future of work.
ILI provides a space for worker-led organizations to collect and share knowledge, tell their stories, and collectively advocate for a more just and secure future for workers.

Worker-Centered, Worker-Led
ILI believes that knowledge on the conditions of work should come from workers, and that the solutions to enable more decent work must be defined by workers themselves.
ILI provides a space where worker-led organizations can collaborate and advocate, and where worker-focused institutions can listen and learn.
Rooted in the Informal Economy
Launched by the Global Fairness Initiative and a coalition of grassroots partners, ILI is fundamentally pro-women. We provide a collaborative space to protect labor rights and create dialogues that promote socio-economic progress, ensuring that communities of promise can become centers of prosperity.
