The main objective of the contribution is to promote full respect for the human and labour rights of migrant workers within supply chains in Asia. A specific focus is given to women and migrants in situations of vulnerability. Central to the rationale of the MBHR Asia programme are the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and their "Protect, Respect and Remedy" framework and the programme outcomes are structured along this framework. PROTECT (Outcome 1): Improved labour migration governance that holds private sector actors accountable in protecting migrant workers' rights from a multi-sectoral, rights-based and gender-responsive approach. Output 1.1 Increased capacities and technical resources of national and subnational authorities and regional bodies in Asia in the design and implementation of policies related to labour migration governance, Responsible Business Conduct and the protection of migrant workers' rights in coordination with the private sector and the Civil Society Organisations Output 1.2 Increased availability of rights-based, gender-responsive and inclusive support and information services for migrant workers in coordination with Civil Society organizations, migrant networks and service providers. RESPECT (Outcome 2): Improved corporate due diligence practices of private sector entities that respect the rights of migrant workers across their entire supply chains and at all stages of labour migration. Output 2.1 Improved knowledge and tools of private sector entities in the implementation of human rights due diligence and ethical recruitment and employment standards. Output 2.2 Increased opportunities for private sector stakeholders to engage in dialogues and collective actions around the responsible and transparent management of labour migration processes and the development of industry-led advocacy initiatives. REMEDY (Outcome 3): Enhanced access for migrant workers to effective and gender-sensitive state justice and corporate grievance and remediation mechanisms. Output 3.1 Improved knowledge and tools of state actors and the private sector in the implementation of grievance mechanisms and the effective remediation of rights violations and abuses experienced by migrant workers. Output 3.2 Increased capacities and resources of civil society, migrant-driven organizations and trade unions in advancing migrant workers´ access to state-based justice and corporate grievance mechanisms.
