Summary: 

The agreement concluded in September 2014 aims to support the continuation of joint activities of trade unions and domestic workers' organisations from both countries as well as to strengthen organisations in Paraguay and their relations with regional and international unions. According to the Action Plan, an online Union Network will be established and a communication strategy using social networks will be developed in order to promote the knowledge and exercise the rights of domestic workers and migrants in Argentina and Paraguay. The agreement also intends to strengthen the union of domestic workers and their alliances with the labour union confederations through trainings, bi-national meetings and exchanges of good practices.
