Working with Informality: Food, Livelihood, and the Path to Resilient Communities
This event explores the informal sector’s vital role in achieving global development goals. From school feeding to street food, it highlights how informal economies drive local resilience, jobs, and social support. With 61% of the global workforce in informality, inclusive policies—not punitive ones—are key. The event focuses on food systems as entry points to rethinking informality for sustainable, climate-resilient development. // Photo Credits: Tamara Siewert
