Developing the Global Compact on Migration 2016, para. 56

Paragraph
Paragraph text
Once the proper legal framework is in place, migrants will also have greater capacity to protect themselves in times of crisis and vulnerability, especially when they can directly access domestic courts and tribunals to address rights violations in the context of trade. Working with civil society, trade unions and the private sector is essential to improving human rights and labour rights protections for migrants.
