Recruitment Advisor has coordination teams in different countries (currently in the Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal , Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Uganda, Ethiopia, Hong Kong, Bahrain, Jordan). Together with several other organizations in each country, the team reaches out to the workers with the mission to raise awareness on the workers’ rights to be fairly recruited based on ILO General Principles and Operational Guidelines for Fair Recruitment and to encourage workers to share and learn about fair recruitment through Recruitment Advisor.
