Abstract: 
This is a brief sketch of the Self Employed Women’s Association’s (SEWA) threedecade- long journey from the local to global and informal to formal sector in search of finding work and income for now 720,000 women workers. Though SEWA remains a local and an informal economy workers’ organization, its aim has always been to mainstream its issues, hopes, and achievements.
