If governments cannot create jobs, yet criminalize citizens who create their own jobs, they risk social instability. Yet governments routinely refuse to engage with inform wiego.org/blog/hungry-tr…

In some African cities, the spirit of colonialism lives on in how street vendors are treated by govts. @marlesevb writes, "Branded as ‘development’ & in pursuit of attaining status as a ‘world-class city,’ their policies perpetuate colonial legacies." 👉bit.ly/3Khzkar

What a fantastic 4 days. I learnt new theoretical lenses but mostly loved the time with critical thinkers and passionate people: activist scholars and practitioners committed to the many workers excluded from labour law. Thanks @VPietrogiovanni @Clmumme @mdiasabey @FotisVergis

My blog discusses structural unemployment and the dream of #worldclass cities: urban renewal programmes that result in mass forced removals of #streetvendors from their workplaces and yet the right to work is enshrined in international law @CitiesAlliance

Governments are trying to erase informal traders from public spaces. @ilo developed a Transition from the Informal to the Formal Economy Recommendation, also known as R204, that presents guidelines for changing this scenario. 👉 Learn more in our blog: bit.ly/3Khzkar

Looking forward to attending the #LSA2024 in Denver. I'll be presenting my lobbying book on Thursday morning (in the session on "Social Change, Revolutions & the Law"). If you'd like to find (or avoid) me, I'll most likely be near a coffee machine. ww3.aievolution.com/lsa2401/Events…

Excellent blog on how World Bank funded programs are leading to the eviction of 1,000s of street vendors from workplaces across Africa, driving up already high unemployment. Governments should be negotiating with vendors to find solutions that respects their right to work.

With no prospect of employment, citizens are creating their own jobs. Still, governments insist on criminalizing these #workers. @marlesevb reflects on the risks of criminalization & explores how govts and workers can work together to reach solutions: bit.ly/3Khzkar
