Where the money goes?

Supporting women market vendors in the pacific.

Between 75 and 90% of market vendors in the Pacific region are women. The hours are long, the profits are often low, and conditions are difficult. Women often come from rural areas and sleep at the market for three to four days, exposing them to higher risks of violence and theft.
