This book shines a light on the issues of governance, rights and
the injustices that are meted out to an ever growing and vulnerable
sector of the global migrant community - women. Whilst much of the
current literature continues to focus on the issues of remittances
and brain drain, there has been very little that examines concerns
regarding governance and rights for female workers. This is
especially true of the case of women who are particularly
vulnerable and have been subject to sexual abuse. Such an omission
is pressing given the fact that, as of 2009, only 42 countries have
signed the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights
of Migrants and Members of their Families. The authors thus
demonstrate that migrants moving within the Global South are at a
greater risk of being subject to social injustices on account of
less developed welfare systems.
