For this week’s Garment Worker Diaries blog we’re providing an overview of some new questions we’ll be adding to our surveys. The new questions cover the topics of savings, spending, workers’ support networks, and food security in more depth than we have been doing up until now. We’ll also be asking more questions that are concerned with control over finances and decision-making when it comes to spending money. We hope these new questions will offer even more insights into the lives of garment workers in Bangladesh, and in particular will add to our understanding of womens’ ability to control their own finances.
We look forward to sharing some of the results from these questions with you in just a few weeks.
As always, you can send any questions you have for MFO, SANEM, the workers or about the project to [email protected]
