Verité will undertake targeted research in order to document the processes and mechanisms by which corruption occurs in labour recruitment. The research will focus on recruitment of migrants in three transnational migrant corridors: from Nepal to Qatar, Myanmar to Thailand, and Myanmar to Malaysia.
This research will be incorporated into a report for use by the Freedom Fund in its efforts to draw attention to the connection between corruption and human trafficking risk, and to mobilize action by the private sector and regulators.
