description:
In most of the origin countries, implementing partners placed a strong emphasis on improving livelihoods to address the vulnerabilities leading to (unsafe) migration. To facilitate this, partners (for e.g. in India and Nepal), through their institutional outreach, have linked vulnerable women with multiple government and private sector trainings and livelihood schemes, thereby enhancing livelihood security in project’s coverage area. Besides this, partners also worked to reduce stigma around certain categories of jobs, through community orientation sessions and by teaching women the value of labour. Due to this, women started taking up jobs in non-traditional settings such as in hotels. This opened up more local livelihoods options for women, especially those who did not wish to migrate.
