The spaces include: *factories and financial institutions; *homes, neighbourhoods and streets, where trust is a critical variable in some economic transactions taking place. The different players and stakeholders in these transactions of trust include: *organised labour, *migrant workers, *self-help/neighbourhood groups, *domestic workers and caregivers, and *street children.| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
