Migration and Gender Empowerment: Recent Trends and Emerging Issues
Jayati Ghosh

This paper attempts to study the issue of women migrant labourers as women today form a significant section of national and international migrants. The process of migration, and how that can be gender-differentiated, is discussed with particular reference to the various types of female migration that are common: marriage migration, family migration, forced migration and migration for work. The paper also explores the issues and problems of women migrants in the process of migration and in the destination country.
