What #gigeconomy apps 📲 in Egypt 🇪🇬 offer better working conditions?
For a second year, #FairworkEgypt has rated 10 apps for ride-hailing 🚕 delivery 🥡 domestic services 🪣 and tutoring 👩🏫
4 of them improved from last year, but most are still far from offering fair work ‼️

The negotiations collapsed early into Saturday morning. No conclusions adopted. Disappointed to say the least. Will reflect more in due course after some rest. So proud of the Workers’ Group. The fight for an ILO Convention on platform work continues. #gigeconomy – at Geneva, Switzerland
Today we began negotiations at the first-ever dedicated @ilo technical meeting of experts on the platform economy. It's going to be a long week. We've been asked by the GB to provide guidance to inform a possible general discussion or standard-setting item.

This is an old @Haaretz Op-Ed by Amer Dacca, but it is still relevant. I refer to this quote below in the book - to what extent is this still relevant today? What are your thoughts? haaretz.com/opinion/2016-05-…

The Invisible Palestinians is a book about Tel Aviv, as much as it is a book about Palestinians & Pal citizens of Israel and their current reality within Israeli cities iupress.org/9780253060839/th…

This is the map of Tel Aviv in “The Invisible Palestinians”. It shows a destroyed Palestinian past buried underneath the city, and a marginalized Palestinian present hidden within the city. iupress.org/9780253060839/th…

Is digitalisation of humanitarian aid a good idea? Yes, as long as it is user-centred and inclusive by design. But that is not what humanitarian agencies and donors are prioritizing. From my colleague @J0hn_Bryant @hpg_odi thenewhumanitarian.org/opini… (@newhumanitarian)
