Abstract:
This account was written following a SEWA-organised EDP in Gujarat in January 2004. The author was one of a group of development analysts who preceded their discussions about labour markets, trade and poverty with exposure to the lives of six SEWA members. The women's life stories provided a frame of reference for the technical dialogue that followed. The first half of the article gives a flavour of the SEWA member's life and community, while the second shows how the experience influenced the author's judgment about the minimum wage. As with all these accounts the comments reflect the author's personal opinion and perspective at the time of writing.Document Type: Miscellaneous
