“Dogs and Indians not allowed,” proclaimed a notorious 1930s signboard at the Pahartali European Club in the Chittagong region of India (now in Bangladesh), when the country was under British rule. Today, in the 21st century, in recreational and residential spaces throughout Indian cities, there’s an invisible sign which says: “No domestic workers allowed”.

In honor of International Domestic Workers Day (IDWD), NDWA offers these materials on conducting effective and systematic outreach. Let’s use International Domestic Workers Day to build our movement!
This year, NDWA has worked with artist Rommy Torrico to create a beautiful image lifting up domestic workers. We hope you will use this image in posters, flyers, and social media to invite domestic workers to join our movement and to raise consciousness of anyone who knows a domestic worker about the value and dignity of our work. International Domestic Workers Day provides a great opportunity to lift up the issues and voices of domestic workers - it’s inspiring for our members, it’s interesting to the media, and it’s a great moment to get out there and communicate with our communities!
