WORKSHOP: Movement Building

Validation Workshop on Strategic Engagements for Migrant Rights

Key stakeholders, including civil society organisations and representatives from migrant and refugee-led organisations, convened at the Sunnyside Park Hotel in Johannesburg for the Validation Workshop on Strategic Engagements on Movement Building for Migrant Rights in South Africa. The workshop served as a critical platform for dialogue, collaboration, and action to strengthen advocacy efforts for migrant rights.

Discussions focused on strategies for building movements that effectively protect migrant communities, while participants engaged in strategic and critical exchanges on approaches to strengthening migrant rights in South Africa. A key component of the workshop involved reviewing and validating research findings, incorporating feedback from stakeholders and expert recommendations to ensure alignment with the lived realities of affected communities.

This collaborative effort underscored the importance of collective action in advancing migrant rights, fostering inclusive policy discussions, and reinforcing advocacy initiatives that address systemic challenges faced by migrants and refugees.
