Migrant Support Desk
In 2023, we established the Migrant Support Desk to provide advisory to travelers, businesses people on the basics of cross border movement and trade as well as service movement among others in the spirit of promoting reginal integration. The migrant support Desk further partakes in advocacy and awareness about the rights of migrants at the regional levels. TRANET-Africa is host and coordinator of the Global Migrant Network (GLOMINET), a coalition of organizations fighting against human trafficking, fostering protection of migrant workers, anti-racism and empowering young people in their home countries as well advocating for creation of opportunities that reduce outward migration. In 2017, we mobilized organizations across the globe and we received positive feedback from the Caribbean, Africa, middle east and UK.
