Migrant Political Voices: Turning Up the Volume
Labour International CLP

Add to calendar


Many migrants face political exclusion. In moving from one country to another, migrants often forfeit their right to a political voice in both their country of origin and their country of residence. They are routinely ignored by society, the media, political parties and trade unions. In this session, migrant acitivsts and allies will discuss how we might put migrant voices at the front and centre of our political struggles.
