What the IDWN does

Our mission is to help build strong, democratic domestic workers’ organisations to protect domestic workers’ rights everywhere.

Domestic/household workers demand respect for our rights as workers and recognition for the vital work we do. We have been servants, maids, ‘helpers’, and even slaves. Many suffer abuse from employers. We say, “No more!” Happily, many fellow workers and others in society, governments – and even some employers – now agree with us.

Our mission is to help build strong, democratic domestic workers’ organisations to protect domestic workers’ rights everywhere. Today the IDWN brings together over 70 organisations in some 35 countries. The IDWN is a network of domestic workers’ organisations across the world.
