Asia, though hosting a substantial portion of the world\u2019s migrants, provides the poorest protection and fewest policies for advancing migrants\u2019 rights and livelihoods. This webinar aims to feature some of the most crucial queries and questions revolving around \u2018migration\u2019. It provides an interdisciplinary platform where distinguished scholars of the <em>CHCI-GLOBAL HUMANITIES INSTITUTE 2020-2021 <\/em>and Asia-based migrant rights activists and NGOs present their research and professional observations of the complexities of migrant issues in the context of the global COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>The webinar encompasses four themes: (1)<strong> Precarious Conditions and the Legality\/Illegality Divide of Migrant Workers;<\/strong> (2) <strong>Multidirectional Unequal Care and Unequal Rights<\/strong>; (3) <strong>Lawless Ocean: Fishermen at Sea<\/strong>; and (4) <strong>Transnational Care and Journalistic Activism During the Pandemic<\/strong>. It consists of six panels.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Panel One examines the precarious conditions and the legality\/illegality divide among migrant workers within both sending and receiving countries as well as in transnational spaces such as international airports.<\/li>\n<li>Panel Two analyzes the unequal care (e.g., healthcare) and unequal rights (e.g., the right to work) experienced by migrant workers.<\/li>\n<li>Panel Three, adding to Panel One\u2019s discussion on (il)legality status of migrant workers, examines the criminalization of undocumented migrant workers on the ground in particular countries such as Taiwan and Malaysia.<\/li>\n<li>Panel Four exposes the crimes against unprotected migrant fishermen who labour away on lawless waters.<\/li>\n<li>Panel Five and Six address in further detail the predicament of migrant workers during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they endeavor to overcome their dilemmas.<\/li>\n<li>Panel Six pinpoints the need for more active and effective communication between sending and receiving countries to improve migrant workers\u2019 circumstances. With the dual theoretical-pragmatic approach, this webinar aims to elicit fruitful dialogue and interventions that will enhance the rights and welfare of migrants in Asia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Agenda &amp; Speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Foreign Migrant Workers in Malaysia in the time of
