"Women are half the world's people who do two-thirds of the world's work. 

They earn a tenth of the world's income and own a hundredth of the world's property"...

WomenAid International 

A key part of the role of UNI is educating and campaigning for greater rights for women.
Women play an ever-greater role at work - but often in low paid, part-time and insecure jobs.
Women still have a unique family role that needs to be reflected in, for instance, proper maternity arrangements and by more family-friendly policies at work.
A recent joint campaign by the UNI founding partners spotlighted the violence faced by women.
UNI also wants to help affiliates recruit more women into the ranks of trade unions and for them to become more active at all levels.
To help in this we want to build on the activities of the successful Global Equality Project.
