Session Type: Oral


The migration of women has always been central to international migration. In the past few decades, women migrants have become increasingly part of flows of migrant workers, migrating alone to become the principal wage earners for their families. Most move voluntarily but many are also forced migrants leaving their countries in order to flee conflict, persecution, environmental degradation, natural disasters or other situations that affect their security, livelihood or habitat. This session considers the intersections of gender, migration, and work.
