We are a registered charity, recognised by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade as an international development agency,  helping to alleviate poverty and achieve justice for workers  by supporting the development of unions, worker led cooperatives and education opportunities  for workers and their families.

We believe that all people have the right to fair pay, freedom from debt and violence, access to safe housing and transport, education and healthcare and that empowering workers to advocate, and organise, for their rights is a way to achieve this.
