Migrant Rights, Migrant Realities: Women’s Labour Migration

GAATW International Secretariat

9 episodes

Women migrant workers straddle different worlds of rightlessness. In destination countries, they may be excluded from labour laws or be subjected to exploitation. In home countries, their gender, class, and ethnicity may disempower them within the household and labour market. However, migrant women are not only victims of oppression; they contribute to their families' wellbeing and the global economy. This podcast series inhabits the world that migrant women live in, understands it from a rights-based standpoint, and strives for policies that make work and migration radically safer.

Season 1: Is "inclusive" just another buzzword? | Igor Bosc

When political processes maintain the status quo-- especially the exclusions and expulsions in society-- what kind of social change comes with adding "inclusion" in the policy objectives? How can laws be "inclusive" if they are oblivious of the structural inequalities produced and reproduced by economic growth? What kind of "returning home" awaits migrant workers who were excluded by society even before their migration?
