Funded Activity Summary

Asian Women, Migration and Transnational Governance from Below. This project investigates international labour migration and its gender implications in the context of intra-regional flows in Southeast and East Asia. It evaluates the responses and type(s) of activism by major migrant lobbyists as a potential force for socio-legal change and to what extent they operate beyond national borders. By integrating civil society activism, a novel approach is offered which conceptually combines the analysis of women's needs and concerns when migrating internationally with democratisation processes and the increasing acceptance of global norms, nationally and transnationally. The publication of a single-authored monograph and a number of journal articles is anticipated.
