Meeting Migrants' Information and Communication Needs: Grassroots Experiences from Asia, Latin America and the Middle East

Meeting Migrants' Information and Communication Needs: Grassroots Experiences from Asia, Latin America and the Middle East

This event shares learnings and best practices derived from grassroots initiatives from the Philippines, Hong Kong, Lebanon, Jordan, Mexico, and Colombia seeking to meet migrants’ communication and information needs, such as access to information, access to media technology and connectivity, fair media representation, their ability to exercise their right to free expression, and participating in their new communities. These unmet needs undermine migrants’ ability to exercise their human rights. These initiatives are helping to enhance the capacity of migrant groups to engage in advocacy, build relationships with media houses, and produce a body of evidence to help raise public awareness about the issues they face.
