Expecting and nursing mothers require social protection but workers in the informal economy are often not covered. Maternity protection has been a primary concern of the ILO since its creation in 1919. Workplace support for mothers who are breastfeeding has been a basic provision of maternity protection. The Philippines expanded maternity leave benefits in 2019 to align with international labour standards. The ILO also promoted exclusive breastfeeding in the workplace to advance women’s rights to maternity protection and to improve nutrition security for Filipino children.

Old Communist era fresco.
I love this stuff. Ok, I'm not pro-Soviet style communism or anything. But I do think there's something noble in idealising ordinary people doing ordinary things like in alot of Soviet art.
These days you've got to be an obnoxious reality star to be admired. :)
The "Quinta do Mocho" neighborhood has been considered for many years as a dangerous area. Situated a few kilometers from Lisbon (Portugal), in the LOURES municipality, the hood is very poor and composed of a huge majority of African immigrants, working on Loures industries around the hood.
Many of those workers have been relocated there when other near-by ghettos has been destroyed and rehabilitated.
The "O Bairro i o Mundo" festival has already produced something like 25 murals by portuguese artists in order to change the image of the area and is now starting to invite international artists ...
Mural situated in the heart of the neighborhood at the crossing of Rua agostinho and Rua Pero Escobar.

Sex workers are taking part in the International Women’s Strike (IWS), with women in over 40 countries participating. Read the A declaration from English Collective of Prostitutes and Empower Foundation, endorsed by the Global Network of Sex Work Projects (NSWP.ORG) issued which puts forth some of the reasons why sex workers are striking:
“On March 8, in the spirit of solidarity as part of the International Women’s Strike, sex workers will strike against poverty, criminalization and stigma, whether by refusing to go to work, charging double rates or by any other action possible.”
The Women’s March on Washington is calling for a ‘Day without A Woman’ on March 8 too, International Women’s Day. The contingent is part of the IWS march in Oakland.

Not strictly a Finsec event, but here's a few photos of the Service and Food Workers' Union Nga Ringa Tota rally in Wellington on International Cleaners Day.
The 'Fair Deal for Cleaners' campaign that this rally is part of aims to provide a voice to the low-waged largely immigrant female workforce, in cities across Australia and New Zealand, who are calling on big property owners to support decency in their workplaces.

The Ijen volcano complex is a group of stratovolcanoes, in East Java, Indonesia. It is inside a larger caldera Ijen, which is about 20 kilometers wide. The Gunung Merapi stratovolcano is the highest point of that complex. The name of this volcano resembles that of a different volcano, Mount Merapi in central Java, also known as Gunung Merapi; there is also a third volcano named Marapi in Sumatra. The name "Merapi" means "fire" in the Indonesian language.
West of Gunung Merapi is the Ijen volcano, which has a one-kilometer-wide turquoise-colored acid crater lake. The lake is the site of a labor-intensive sulfur mining operation, in which sulfur-laden baskets are carried by hand from the crater floor. The work is low-paid and very onerous. Workers earn around $5.50-$8.30 (Rp 50,000 - Rp 75,000) per day and once out of the crater, still need to carry their loads of sulfur chunks about three kilometers to the nearby Pultuding valley to get paid.
Many other post-caldera cones and craters are located within the caldera or along its rim. The largest concentration of post-caldera cones forms an east/west-trending zone across the southern side of the caldera. The active crater at Kawah Ijen has an equivalent radius of 361 metres (1,184 ft), a surface of 0.41 square kilometres (0.16 sq mi). It is 200 metres (660 ft) deep and has a volume of 36 cubic hectometres (29,000 acre·ft).
In 2008, explorer George Kourounis took a small rubber boat out onto the acid lake to measure its acidity. The pH of the water in the crater was measured to be 0.5 due to sulfuric acid.

Shipyard workers in Elsinore, Denmark. The sculptures are located at Kulturværftet/The Culture Yard in Elsinore/Helsingør. The Culture Yard is the new community center in Elsinore. It is an exiting building containing a ship yard museum, library, concert hall and changing exhibitions. With respect for the old buildings the old ship yard is transformed into a modern functional culture, meeting and conference center.
The 25-ton sculpture.“The Workers,” which depicts two steelworkers and a ladle, was made of reclaimed steel from the very furnaces that once sat on this site in Pittsburgh's South Side.
