Date \uff1aOctober 30, 2021 (Sat)

This seminar focuses on the Children of Migrant Workers.
\nRegarding the issue of migrant workers’ children, previous studies focus on children “stay-behind” at the end of the care chain, children born as unintended consequences of migration, and the second generation of “education” to which they have migrated. In addition, focusing on the issues surrounded by children of migrant workers includes considering the (re) reorganization of gender division of labor within migrant worker households and the reconstruction of care roles in sending societies.
\nIn this seminar, we would like to consider the gender issues related to \u201cchildren of migrant workers\u201d case of Indonesian sending society and the “children of migrant workers” in the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
