New Report: Young Haitian Labour Migrants |

Risks & Opportunities in Haiti & in the Dominican Republic
Haitian youth growing up in rural areas are faced
with few opportunities for social mobility in their local communities.
Employment is mainly limited to the highly unpredictable agricultural
sector and institutions offering higher education are concentrated in
urban areas. The lack of local opportunities pushes many rural youth to
search for employment elsewhere, either in Haiti itself or across the
border in the Dominican Republic. With its labour intensive plantation
economy and booming construction sector, the Dominican Republic has a
high demand for cheap, manual labour.
Cross-border migration offers opportunities to
Haitian youth, but it also involves a high level of risk. This report
is based on interviews with experienced and potential youth migrants
and analyses the different sets of factors which impact the decision to
migrate, and looks at how Haitian youth perceive and experience the
risks, as well as the opportunities, arising from migration. |

Senegal-Mauritania: Transit countries to Europe with high levels of migrant women |
|
 Most migrant women die during the seacrossing from Mauritania to Europe
According to a report published by the International Trade Union Confederation (Report #16 Union View), Mauritania and Senegal, host countries for migrants from the whole west Africa region, are very vulnerable to migration flows. Women represent aprox. 60 percent of the total migrants in the Senegal-Mauritania migration corridor: “Migration into Mauritania is primarily female. These women work long days and have to abandon their children, who suffer high levels of abuse. They have no protection if they become pregnant. They are the target of endless harassment by the administrative authorities and the police” (Mamadou Niang, CGTM).
