Together with communities of migrant workers, we set up grievance mechanisms to identify the impact of adverse human rights affecting migrant workers\u00a0 and work with them to seek remedy and justice. Our goal is to make sure that the support is sustainable by addressing root causes and preventing human rights abuses from happening in the first place. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Understanding the Context<\/div>

We seek to holistically understand the context for every project we work on. Legal factors (such as labour laws, domestic work decrees and regulations in the supply chain) play an important part, but so do cultural factors, such as a community\u2019s comfort level when speaking about debt or asking for support. We also examine current practices on the ground, as there is often a difference between laws or policies and actual practice. We also take into consideration the location, cultural, societal, gender, and sector-related factors.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Identifying issues<\/div>

After more than 9 years working on the ground, we are known among different communities. Most of our projects are initiated by individuals or groups of a community when they reach out to us. Exceptions are when we are looking for particular workers, whose families are looking for, and when we need to identify larger populations of a particular group to understand how widespread issues are (birth rights). There is no checklist or questionnaire that we follow, we listen to their issues and have conversations identifying root causes and other issues that they might not be aware of (access to justice). <\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Collecting data<\/div>

The collection of data allows us to understand whether an issue is affecting a small number of individuals, a particular community, or whether it is widespread. All data collected is primary and it is also used to identify victims of modern slavery and other issues. The data also helps us identify when people are vulnerable and respond in real-time. An example of this is our Freedom for Our Sisters project, where gathering data enabled us to identify and respond to the most urgent cases and revealed widespread issues and their systemic causes. <\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
