What is the Migrant Worker Solidarity Network?

The Migrant Worker Solidarity Network acts in solidarity with migrant workers in Manitoba and around the world. Currently our focus is on farmworkers who come to Manitoba from Mexico through the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP). We work to:

find ways to get to know migrant workers: put names, faces and stories to the workers who grow your food – if you want ideas for how to do this, be in touch with the MWSN
befriend migrant workers and support them personally
lobby decision-makers for improved working and living conditions for migrant workers
educate the broader public on the realities that migrant workers face.
We are made up of labour, faith and community activists. Many of us have long-standing connections to Mexico and Latin America.
