Federation of Informal Workers Organisation of Nigeria
Empowering informal workers through organization, education, and advocacy for better working and living conditions.
What We Do
Civic and Trade Union Education
Most informal workers lack an awareness of their citizenship rights, which can lead to harassment and extortion. FIWON devotes resources to continuous civic and trade union education.
Leadership Education
FIWON carries out regular leadership training for leaders and activists to strengthen representation and governance within informal workers' organizations.
