Survey on origin countries’ migrant worker policies
We would like to learn what origin countries do to improve the rights of their migrant workers.
Possible examples are pre-departure training, regulating recruitment, offering consular services, signing MoUs, or announcing migration bans.
The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
You can start the survey here.
