The Solidarity Center in collaboration with Migrant Forum in Asia is holding a regional consultation on “Recruitment Practices: Interconnection Between Recruitment, Labour Migration and Human Trafficking” on June 29-30 at the Galle Face Hotel, Colombo.

The Center said in a statement that Government representatives from Bangladesh, Maldives, Nepal, India and Sri Lanka as well as the Philipines and United Arab Emirates and civil society and trade union stakeholders working in the area of labour migration are taking part in the consultation.
“Key objectives will be to address regulatory and enforcement gaps, experience sharing of different recruitment practices, improve mechanisms of complaints and remedy, facilitate social dialogue on these issues and ultimately ensure the implementation of recruitment practices based on international standards,” it said.

Participants would be expected to share information on the role and mandate of their institutions, issues in recruitment practices in their respective countries, legislation and regulatory mechanism regarding labour migration, and the ongoing engagement of their institutions pertaining to improving recruitment practices.
