Migrants' remittances are a lifeline for families, communities, countries of origin.
Speaking at the #GFRID Summit 2023 @DimancheSh commended the Government of Kenya and @LabourSPKE for embracing @IRIS_programme which ensures ethical recruitment of migrants.
At the first session of day 2, we’re hearing from great panelists about widespread charging of recruitment fees and related costs to #migrantworkers also in the shipping industry… #gfrr2023 (1/2)
…but also about promising initiatives to raise awareness and conduct proper due diligence to make the employer pays principle a reality!
Strong call from panelists for holistic approach and increased collaboration between actors to ensure protection of #migrantworkers in the maritime sector.
Great panel at the #gfrr2023 yesterday on making #ethicalrecruitment sustainable!
