ORGANISATION BACKGROUND AND LOCAL CONTEXT
JHM project aims at creating safe patterns of internal migration and at providing marginalised girls/young women from South West Bangla-desh, who willingly decide to move to Dhaka and work in the garment sector, with a platform of skills training, job opportunities and services in order for them to experience a more secured everyday life. The action will also create an enabling environment within the targeted garment factories, where organised workers are allowed to regularly dialogue and negotiate with the factories’ management as well as to carry out peaceful conflicts resolution, in line with the Bangladesh Labour Law (2006) and its successive amendments (2012 and 2013).
