Connecting With KAN
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.

Discrimination: Gender Discrimination
Welcome to "Discrimination: Gender Discrimination," a podcast episode focusing on the experiences of migrant workers in Kuwait. In this episode, we delve into the specific challenges faced by migrant women, exploring how gender intersects with their migrant status. Through research and consultation, we've collected information and shed light on the gender-based discrimination they encounter in various aspects of life, from employment to social interactions. Join us as we advocate for gender equality and empower migrant women to navigate and overcome these barriers in Kuwaiti society.
