Colmena on International Migrants Day

Colmena collaborators are celebrating International Migrants Day today with a cartoon on the rights of migrant workers.

According to the United Nations, “migrants and displaced persons are among the most vulnerable and marginalized groups in society and are often exposed to abuse and exploitation”.

The UN’s International Migrants Day 2022 coincides with the World Cup final in Qatar, an event that brought to the forefront the abuse and exploitation experienced by hundreds of migrants during the construction of the soccer stadiums.

Colmena contributors Myriam Horngren and Rene Plaetevoet share a drawing that raises the importance of migrant workers’ rights, not only in Qatar, but around the world.

We invite you to download the cartoon and share it on social media using the hashtag #imd2022qatar.
