title:

Reach out more actively to the employers’ and especially also to workers’ organisations. For example, one venue to involve the trade unions more could be with capacity building components regarding labour migration issues and how to incorporate that into their organisations. Another venue could be through the activities of the South Asia Regional Trade Union Council, SARTUC (see further also the recommendation below on Inbound migration).
