Zusammenfassung
  • Migrant domestic workers have long been framed as passive victims
    of the Kafala system, a migration surveillance mechanism that legally
    binds incoming migrant workers to the employer who sponsors their
    visa. They are depicted as individuals trapped in an exploitative
    relationship with little recourse to legal protection, their voices muted
    by their circumstances. This publication, however, questions this
    image of helplessness and victimhood.
    It shares the personal testimonies of ten incredible women who came
    to Lebanon as migrant domestic workers and chose to stand up against
    the oppression of the Kafala system.
