Extract from Executive Officer's report:
"Union Aid Abroad-APHEDA had another successful year in 2009-10, with thousands of working men and women trained in crucial skills to enable them to either gain employment or earn a livelihood. Through over 50 projects in 15 countries we helped many families earn a secure income, which is the most effective means of lifting people out of poverty.
Decent Work - a foundation for development
Work that provides dignity to the worker and a living wage for their family is essential if the more than 800 million workers who earn less than $2 a day are to ever have a decent life for themselves and their families. Independent, democratic and strong unions are crucial in ensuring that these workers have a living wage, and therefore are able to feed, clothe and educate their children themselves, without relying on sponsorship from abroad. The ILO, the global union movement and the ACTU all advocate Decent Work as essential to overcoming poverty."
