This study analyzes the case of the M exican B order C ommittee of W omen W orkers, a women's grassroots organization, situated in P iedras N egras, C oahuila, M exico, that has been part of international prowomen worker alliances since its formation in the mid‐1980s. It argues that the community‐based work that this organization carries out in the form of in‐house training and grassroots organizing inside factories has played a central role in its international alliances and could be considered the social capital of its transnational alliances and campaigns
