The report Migrant women’s rights in poultry supply chain in Thailand is part of the project Our Food Our Future (CSO-LA/2020/411-443), co-financed by the European Commission within the DEAR Programme (Development Education and Awareness Raising Programme) and promoted by WeWorld together with 15 other European organisations. The project aims to promote alternative and critical models of consumption, socially and environmentally sustainable agrifood supply chains, fair trade relations, and respect for male and female workers’ human rights as well as to promote the economic systems that perpetuate inequality and the monopolising of resources, with serious consequences in terms of respecting the human rights of the most vulnerable groups and safeguarding the environment. Conducted by WeWorld and Rapid Asia, this research is aimed at investigating the dynamics of migration, recruitment processes, working conditions, and related human rights due diligence in the Thai poultry industry, with a particular focus on female Cambodian migrant workers.
