Abstract
Chapter 3 discusses transnational organizing by two migrant caregiver organizations in Canada. It focuses specifically on their participation in the deliberations in 2010 and in 2011 leading up to the creation of the Convention on Domestic Work at the International Labour Conference in Geneva, Switzerland, and the 2011 International Migrants Alliance in Manila, Philippines. It addresses the dynamics that these organizations encountered in transnational spaces and highlights the various negotiations representatives of these organizations had to make when considering what care and care activism should look like when scaled up. It also highlights how these organizations carve out spaces in these international fora to make sure that activists were heard.
