  1. Preparatory research project on the involvement of migrant workers and their families in the social and solidarity economy in Kyrgyzstan, Republic of Korea, and Viet Nam

    Migrant workers and returning migrants are increasingly turning to cooperatives and other social and solidarity economy (SSE) enterprises to ensure they have full access to the development benefits of labour migration. In light of these trends, the ILO's Labour Migration Branch (MIGRANT) and the ILO's Cooperatives unit (COOP) have been collaborating on an effort to improve understanding and policies benefiting access of migrant workers to cooperatives and other forms of SSE enterprises that can enhance livelihoods, social protection and economic development in the context of migrants' return and reintegration.
