Yesterday was International Migrants Day, which is marked around the world each year to raise awareness of migration issues.

INF's 'Safe Migration' programmes in the border towns Nepalgunj and Mahendranagar aim to reduce risks to Nepali migrants through awareness raising, advocacy and improving access to health and education services through partners in north-west India.

In Nepal's capital Kathmandu INF works in partnership with the 'Nepalese Migrant Unity Network' [NeMUN] which aims to ensure that Nepali economic migrants have a safe and positive experience when working abroad, and helps migrants facing medical, social or legal difficulties.
