The Una Cosecha Justa project aims to increase protections for workers and reduce the risk of child labor, forced labor, and other labor rights violations among indigenous and migrant workers in the chile pepper and tomato sectors. The project will mobilize government officials, employers, workers, workers’ organizations, agricultural outreach workers, community leaders, and civil society organizations to address labor violations and increase worker engagement in advocating for their labor rights.

In addition, the project will raise workers’ awareness of their labor rights and how to report violations. The project will focus on the states of Baja California, Baja California Sur, Chihuahua, Guerrero, and Oaxaca.
