Poto Mitan

Also known as Poto Mitan: Haitian Women, Pillars of the Global Economy, Poto Mitan: Haitian women pillars of the global economy, Poto Mitan: Haitian Women

Told through compelling lives of five courageous Haitian women workers, Poto Mitan gives the global economy a human face. Each woman’s personal story explains neoliberal globalization, how it is gendered, and how it impacts Haiti: inhumane working/living conditions, violence, poverty, lack of education, and poor health care.
