Dear Members and Friends,
Greetings from GAATW International Secretariat.
Before the end of 2013, the GAATW-International Secretariat reflected on its work for the last three years of our project cycle. Inputs from our members about priorities for GAATW's future work suggest that we will continue with our thematic programmes on Accountability and on Power in Migration and Work.
This year we commemorate the 20th year of GAATW's journey! It has been a meaningful 20 years in which we have continuously demanded human rights for all migrating women, regardless of their work or legal status. For our 2014 e-Bulletin, we will honour the women whose vision of centring the knowledge, lived experiences and voices of migrating women and trafficked persons has materialized into this network. In each of our monthly issues, we will talk to one of our founding sisters about the early work of GAATW, the challenges and significant contributions of the Alliance to the Women's Rights Movement. And to highlight two decades of the Alliance's work, we will also feature the insights of long-time allies and advocates in their work promoting women's rights, labour rights and migrant rights around the world.
