Milestones in a journey advocating for the protection of the human rights of all migrant workers and members of their families

As a network the Migrant Forum in Asia (MFA) first came together in Hsinchu, Taiwan, Province of China in 1994 to look at the problems and issues that beset the migration process. From the very beginning MFA’s focus has been to advocate for the protection of the rights of migrant workers and members of their families.

This publication puts out the report of two milestones in that journey – The 7th and 8th Regional Conference on Migration (RCM) held in Jakarta, Indonesia and Dhaka, Bangladesh, in 2001 and 2003- prior to the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and members of their families coming into force as International Law on 1st July 2003.
