Streetnet International
WHAT WE DO
EDUCATION
We develop collective learning paths that strengthen and build the capacity of organizations to think about the world and transform reality.
CAPACITY-BUILDING
We invest in the capacities of our members to increase organizational capacity, internally democracy, training and actions.
ADVOCACY
We bring the demands of street vendors and other informal traders to the international forums, local negotiations and combat the stigma against informal economy workers.
OUR GOAL
To unite working, voiceless, unorganized, and marginalized street and market vendors in the struggle for their socio-economic rights and justice through strengthening their voice, visibility, and legitimacy for influencing the policy directly affecting their lives.
Since StreetNet’s foundation street vendors are better organized, more united and have carved up a space for their issues in the global agenda. We will continue to honor StreetNet’s legacy and make our motto come true: Nothing for us without us!

People have a right to sell,
have a right to be secure,
