Summary: 

The project aims to develop a coherent framework of migration policy across national boundaries in order to ensure the rights of low skilled, rural female domestic workers from the Horn of Africa (Ethiopia and Somalia) in the Middle East and Sudan. The project seeks to improve coordination and cooperation of social partners, civil society, institutions and organizations working on migration issues in Ethiopia, as well as in the receiving countries. It provides female domestic workers with accurate information prior to migration and with safe havens to turn to in emergencies.
