Thanks to an exchange programme between European and Asian universities and organisations, researchers now have the skills to address the challenges presented by informal labour<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

It is estimated that 2 billion people, or 61 % of the world\u2019s employed population, work in the informal economy.<\/span><\/p>\n

While this type of work \u2013 which typically includes street vending, casual labour or small-scale enterprises \u2013 provides a crucial safety net for vulnerable populations, because it is unregulated, it can also lead to unsafe working conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMost informal workers don\u2019t receive benefits or legal protections,\u201d explains Abel Polese, a senior research fellow at Tallinn University(opens in new window). \u201cFurthermore, because this work is untaxed, governments miss out on an important revenue stream, which can hinder economic development and their ability to provide public services.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Polese, in many parts of the world, governments lack the ability to effectively address informal employment and the vulnerability that comes with it. \u201cThis is largely due to a lack of local specialists,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is where the EU-funded LABOUR(opens in new window) project comes in.<\/span><\/p>\n

With a focus on South-East Asia, the project set out to train and develop a global team of specialists on informal employment. \u201cBy gathering a team of 16 participants that includes academic and non-academic partners working on labour insecurity, we not only looked to produce specialists on the topic and on the region but also to propose concrete mitigation measures that can be taken into account by decision-makers and development organisations,\u201d adds Polese, the project\u2019s principal investigator.<\/span><\/p>\n

Building capacity through international exchanges<\/h2>\n

With the aim of enhancing the capacities of both European and Asian researchers, the Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Actions(opens in new window) supported project coordinated several international exchanges(opens in new window). These exchanges saw EU researchers being hosted at various Asian universities, and researchers from Bhutan, Cambodia, Laos, Maldives, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand(opens in new window) and Vietnam spending time at European academies.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEven if we were not able to send anyone to Myanmar because of the political changes, we proudly hosted several researchers from the country,\u201d he notes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a unique chance to receive first-hand information, as well as to offer them training that they will be using in their work with local communities.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

During the exchanges, participants were given a chance to work on individual research projects. They also received mentoring, local training and networking opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

All participants were registered as an associate or visiting researcher at their host university, which allowed them to participate in local intellectual life and attend PhD seminars and courses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Empirical data on informal labour<\/h2>\n

But the exchanges weren\u2019t just about learning. Participants also delivered empirical data on informal labour. For example, in Vietnam, research on informal domestic workers looked at the impact COVID-19 had on worker livelihoods and institutional responses.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Laos and Thailand, research on agricultural burning and informal farming supply chains examined how smallholders experience environmental precarity with unequal political economies.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThrough my findings and experiences during the project, I now bring back home a conceptual idea and a plan on handling proper wastes by starting a small waste management practice with our organisation,\u201d says Sunhenglay Hak, a researcher from Cambodia who spent his exchange at Stockholm University.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
