Kuwait Aid Network (KAN) was founded in June 2020 amidst a global pandemic in an effort to alleviate food insecurity. Now, as a growing not-for-profit, KAN works with migrant workers to provide food, sanitary supplies, and legal aid among the many other difficulties that migrant workers face. As we continue to tackle these issues, we decided to share our experiences in the field to you all at home. In 2020 KAN was awarded the European Union Chaillot Prize for Human Rights for its Human Rights Advocacy in the Arab Gulf.

Challenges facing migrant workers in Kuwait: Employment
Welcome to "Challenges Facing Migrant Workers in Kuwait: Employment," a podcast episode dedicated to exploring the complex employment landscape for migrant workers in Kuwait. In this episode, we delve into the myriad challenges faced by migrant workers, from discriminatory hiring practices to exploitative working conditions. Through research and consultation with migrant workers, labour rights activists, and experts in the field, we uncover the systemic barriers that hinder their access to fair and dignified employment opportunities. Join us as we shine a light on these issues, advocate for labour rights, and work towards creating a more equitable and inclusive workplace environment for migrant workers in Kuwait.
