Manila Workshop Brochure (English, Français)

Sixty years after the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, millions of women around the world are still suffering and dying unnecessarily during pregnancy and delivery; millions more women are being sexually abused and exploited. This global humanitarian problem is especially serious in the context of migration where the rights of women and girls tend to be poorly acknowledged and where opportunities for promoting and protecting their health have to date been largely neglected.

The workshop is designed to provide recommendations for action that will be submitted to the civil society components of the Global Forum for Migration and Development which will take place from 27 to 30 October 2008 in Manila.
