About the Event
The International Centre for Ethnic Studies (ICES) would like to share the findings of a one-year project focused on Unsafe Migration and Human Trafficking in Sri Lankas Tea Plantation Sector. The study was conducted in the Districts of Badulla, Nuwara Eliya and Matale. The project attempted to understand the causes, trends, processes and myths surrounding unsafe labour migration within the plantation sector and the associated socio-economic dynamics that would lead to a stakeholder dialogue on the issue to stimulate an adequate and appropriate policy, as well as institutional dialogue and lobbying.
ICES is hosting this conference to initiate a discussion on findings of the study and receive feedback from key stakeholders and policy makers.Three short documentaries on unsafe migration in the plantation sector will also be screened during the conference.
You are cordially invited to attend the conference. The attachments will give you more information on the conference.
