Abstract:
Sharankumar Limbale exposes the exclusions and exploitations of Dalits in his personal narrative, The Outcaste. As a Dalit, he witnessed the caste political system, the sufferings, mental agony, social exclusions, sexual exploitation, spiritual atrocities, macro and small level discriminations within the caste based Indian society. He narrates however Mahars are being inhumanly treated by the caste Hindus in his narrative. Dalits are accepting untouchable practices in several places. They are created to easily believe that discrimination is confirmed and conjointly to be obeyed. However, Limbale realizes that education is the drugs for all varieties of social diseases. When obtaining education, he came out of the clutches of that society and vivified the hurdles that he featured in his life as an Outcaste. This paper solely focuses on exclusions and exploitation at each levels of dalits’ life.

Abstract:
Dalits in India are at the lowest of the caste system. Dalit women are positioned at the bottom of India’s caste, class and gender hierarchies. They experience endemic gender and caste discrimination and violence as an outcome of severely imbalanced social, economic, and political power equations. Dalit women record that they are often subjected to indecent and inhuman treatment by non- Dalits. The Dalit woman is the uppermost victim of discrimination as she is a woman, she is a Dalit and she is poor. A high number of caste-related crimes occur against Dalit women. Dalit women faced a lot of problems in public as well as private sectors. While working as bonded laborers, they face unpleasant, immoral sexual comments, eve-teasing, sexual exploitation, and rape by the high castes. Dalit women are discriminated against not only by people of higher castes but also within their communities. In this paper, there will be a focus on the status of Dalit women in India. This paper is to study the situation of Dalit women - socially, culturally, economically, and politically. This discrimination and oppression have adversely affected the development process. And the worst hits are the Dalit women

Abstract:
The Development of technology and social media have an impact on the women and children matters in a public sphere. Verbal violence against women and children being a crucial matters in a social media and broadcast platform, therefore legal protection is needed for woman and children against those actions. This research consist of two points there are the urgency of legal protection for woman and children in exploitation and discrimination in the broadcast and social media in Indonesia. This research using normative legal methods with analytical descriptive based on library research. The result of this research shows that the urgency of legal protection needed on woman and children’s exploitation and discrimination in broadcast and social media platform due to Indonesia has ratified CEDAW through Law Number7 of 1984 concerning on the ratification of CEDAW. The implementation of legal protection on the woman and children’s exploitation and discrimination in Indonesia’s social media and broadcast platform has not been optimal. This problem due to the gap between enforcement officers, and society’s role with the prevention and handling children and women’s exploitation and discrimination cases in social media and broadcast platform.

Abstract:
Parasite species often show differential fitness on different host species. We developed an equation-based model to explore conditions favouring host species exploitation and discrimination. In our model, diploid infective stages randomly encountered hosts of two species; the parasite's relative fitness in exploiting each host species, and its ability to discriminate between them, was determined by the parasite's genotype at two independent diallelic loci. Relative host species frequency determined allele frequencies at the exploitation locus, whereas differential fitness and combined host density determined frequency of discrimination alleles. The model predicts instances where populations contain mixes of discriminatory and non-discriminatory infective stages. Also, non-discriminatory parasites should evolve when differential fitness is low to moderate and when combined host densities are low, but not so low as to cause parasite extinction. A corollary is that parasite discrimination (and host-specificity) increases with higher combined host densities. Instances in nature where parasites fail to discriminate when differential fitness is extreme could be explained by one host species evolving resistance, following from earlier selection for parasite non-discrimination. Similar results overall were obtained for haploid extensions of the model. Our model emulates multi-host associations and has implications for understanding broadening of host species ranges by parasites. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Opening the black box: re-examining the ecology and evolution of parasite transmission’.

Abstract:
Employment and work-related exploitation and discrimination are important social determinants of health. However, little is known about the experiences of people on temporary visas in Australia, particularly those on refugee visas. This article reports on a study of people living on temporary visas in South Australia and their experiences of workforce exploitation and discrimination and impacts on health. Interviews were conducted with 30 people: 11 on non-refugee temporary visas and 19 on refugee temporary visas. Data was analyzed thematically. Analysis identified experiences of exploitation and discrimination in the Australian labor market that included difficulties securing work, underpayment, overwork, and hazardous workplaces. These experiences had negative health effects, particularly on mental health. None had made a formal complaint about their treatment, citing the precarity of their visas, difficulties finding an alternative job, and lack of knowledge about what to do. The impacts were especially evident for refugees who were also grappling with pre-settlement trauma and ongoing uncertainties about their future protection. Overall, these findings of discrimination and exploitation in the workplace and subsequent ill health highlight the pervasive impact of neoliberal agendas and stress the need for industrial, immigration, and welfare reform to protect workers on temporary visas.

Abstract:
In the history of Indian English novel, women have been perceptually attempting  to express their ideas, emotions and feelings through their writings. Indian women novelists exhibit their own experience and the multi-faceted experience of Indian women in their short stories and novels. The novelist, in her novels takes into account the complexity of life, different histories, cultures and different structures of values, the woman’s question, despite basic solidarity, needs to be tackled in relation to the socio-cultural situation. Women under the patriarchal pressure and control are subjected to too much more brunts and social ostracism. They are more discriminated and are biased in lieu of their sex. The lives women live and struggle under the oppressive mechanism of a closed society are reflected in the writings of Manju Kapur. One can see the budding of new women in Manju Kapur’s heroines, who do not want to be mere puppets for others to move as they like. Defying patriarchal notions that enforce women towards domesticity, they assert their individuality and aspire self-reliance through education. They nurture the desire of being independent and leading lives of their own. They are not silent rebels but are bold, outspoken, determined and action-oriented.

Abstract:
What kind of discrimination and oppression does the system of the age that we are passing through give structural inequality to citizens-noncitizens? If structural discrimination and oppression are revealed in the visible-invisible realm, what kind of approach does modern psychotherapy need? This study is social justice counseling on psychological counseling approach reflecting the spirit of the times. The purpose of this study is to examine how capitalism in the present era has come to be exploitative and to explore how social justice counseling, a psychological counseling approach based on its exploitation, can have counter-action and alternative. Exploited capitalism has divided into various categories by precariat, and it has proliferated indefinitely by deploying discrimination and oppression between those categories. As a result, the majority of human animal and nonhuman animal beings living on Earth have been trapped in a matrix of pain. Traditional psychological counseling approaches have not captured these structural pitfalls, which have limited the role of psychological counseling, and lack of a sense of sitting on the sidelines of the inclined system. With this sense of criticism, social justice counseling, psychological counseling approach that captures that human animal and nonhuman animal suffering lies in the exploitation of the system, laid the foundation for advocating for the oppressed subject based on the worldview of diversity.

Full text
Abstract:
Domestic workers, also known as house maids or handmaids, are a predominately female workforce that traditionally provides labor in upper-class households. With the increase of dual income families and the global expansion of the middle class, the demand for domestic workers increased, which facilitated the practice of importing lower-cost foreign domestic workers (FDWs) from developing areas. Hong Kong has the highest concentration of FDWs when compared to other metropolitan areas, such as Taiwan, Singapore, or New York. Since the trade began in the 1970s, qualitative research and journalistic investigations have reported that FDWs frequently encounter exploitation, including emotional, physical, and sexual abuse; being underpaid and overworked; and racial discrimination. With sparse quantitative research identifying risk factors that predict psychological well-being, this study hypothesized two models: (a) racial and ethnic microaggressions, job satisfaction, and family concern predict psychological distress and (b) resilience mediates the association in the first model. We surveyed 478 female FDWs in Hong Kong, and the results suggested that racial and ethnic microaggressions, job satisfaction, and family concerns were significant predictors of psychological distress, supporting the first hypothesis. The women demonstrated very high levels of psychological resilience; however, due to a ceiling effect in the measure of resilience, the data collected on resilience were unrelated to job satisfaction and family concerns. Thus, the second model was not supported, apparently due to a problem in the measurement of the construct of resilience in this sample of FWDs. Overall, FDWs’ working conditions and their level of resilience to those conditions did significantly influence their levels of psychological distress. These findings serve as pilot data for future quantitative research that investigates female FDWs’ employment experience.

Abstract:
Since the conjoint development of capitalism and the nation-state in eighteenth century Europe, the practical and theoretical problems of socio-economic reproduction and socio-political order have confronted social scientists of all ilks as different sides of the same coin. In its infancy, sociology drew its formative inspiration from classical political economy, and long after the new discipline had carved out its own niche from the theoretical vacuum created by the rise of neoclassical economics, the dialogue between social and economic theory persisted, especially within the Marxist tradition. Nowhere is this symbiotic relationship more apparent than in the field of labour market studies. The labour market constitutes a microcosm of capitalist society where the related problems of economic reproduction and social order are manifest in their myriad, contradictory forms. One such form is the dyad of racial inequality and conflict. This thesis focuses on how racial conflict is conceived in the contemporary Marxist, neoclassical economic and Weberian literature, and examines the contribution of radical labour market theory to a Marxist theory of racial conflict. The purpose is to meet the challenge extended by a recent, neo-Weberian critique and reformulation of class theory as a unified, theoretico - methodological framework for articulating the relationship between racial groups and social classes, racial conflict and class struggle in the labour market, community, state and international system. It concludes that radical labour market theory represents an important departure from previous Marxist approaches to race and class. Theoretically, radical labour market theory breaks with Marxist tradition by distinguishing group forms of domination like discrimination, from class forms like exploitation, and by relating group and class, market and production relations to racial conflict and class struggle. Methodologically significant is the attempt to apply a non-reductionist class analysis that situates the race - class nexus in the historical context of collective struggles in a dynamic, open-ended class formation process. The implications of these theoretical and methodological directives for Marxist theories of race, class and the State are critically evaluated, and a non-reductionist model of racial conflict is proffered as a preliminary step toward a Marxist theory of inter-group conflict.<br>Arts, Faculty of<br>Sociology, Department of<br>Graduate

In this manuscript, we describe the characterization of some Double Chooz backgrounds. Cosmic muons that stop and decay in the detector are characterized by anisotropic emission of the scintillation light, causing the vertex to be poorly reconstructed. The resulting pulse shape distortion can be used to tag and remove such background. Fast spallation neutrons producing multiple recoil protons may produce a similar distortion in the pulse shape and can also be tagged. Pulse shapes are also used to identify the formation of ortho-positronium. The tagging of such electron-positron bound state is made possible by the induced distortion in the pulse shape due to the delay in the positron annihilation, and can be used for an electron-positron separation

Abstract:
Cette thèse s’intéresse à l’agency (capacité d’agir) telle qu’elle se manifeste dans la vie quotidienne des migrants chinois en situation défavorable en France. Les enquêtes ont été effectuées dans deux quartiers en banlieue parisienne qui accueillent de nombreux nouveaux arrivants « par le bas », et qui commencent leur vie migratoire par une période irrégulière. En dépit d’une double exclusion dans la société d’accueil à la fois de la part des politiques migratoires et du marché, les immigrés chinois réussissent généralement à sortir de l’ornière. Comment y parviennent-ils ?En s’appuyant sur l’accès au logement et au travail, deux domaines essentiels dans l’expérience migratoire, cette thèse tente de répondre à cette problématique en se focalisant sur les marchés ethniques. Non seulement les liens interpersonnels, mais aussi les liens communautaires basés principalement sur l’ethnicité, sont mobilisés comme ressources.Cette thèse entend d’abord mettre en lumière les marchés ethniques du logement et du travail, afin de mieux comprendre le mécanisme qui fait fonctionner cette économie ethnique. D’autre part, elle entend mettre en relief trois questions essentielles autant bien sur le plan académique que sur le plan politique : l’approche émique, en insistant sur les perspectives des migrants eux-mêmes, la tension entre l’importance des ressources communautaires dans la vie quotidienne des migrants chinois et ses contraintes éventuelles, et le faux dilemme entre communauté et intégration<br>This thesis has as its main object of interest the forms of agency manifested in the everyday life of Chinese migrants in disadvantaged situations in France. This is studied through fieldwork conducted in two neighborhoods in Paris suburbs, which received a great number of arrivals “from the bottom”, who began their life as migrants through an undocumented period. Despite a double exclusion in the host society from migration policies and from the market, Chinese immigrants usually manage to pull themselves out. How did they achieve this?By investigating the access to housing and work, two essential domains in the migration experience, this thesis attempts to address this problem with a focus on ethnic markets. In those markets, both interpersonal relationships and community bonds based on ethnicity are mobilized as resources.This thesis aims first to bring to light ethnic markets in housing and work, in order to achieve a better understanding of the mechanisms that enable this ethnic economy to function. Both in scholarly and political perspectives, this thesis emphasizes three essential questions: the emic approach, in which the perspectives of migrants themselves are privileged, the tension between the importance of community resources in the everyday life of Chinese immigrants and their constraints, and finally the false dilemma between community and integration

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter discusses how migrant associations organize their demands and fight for their rights in contemporary Argentina. It looks at the ways in which social categories and social inequalities relate to each other or not in these settings. First, it examines the ways in which Bolivian migrant’s workers in the textiles factories of Buenos Aires debate around issues of class and/or nationality when it comes to organizing. Then, it looks at how other actors introduce different social categories such ethnicity, gender and age and organize themselves against issues of social inequality such as discrimination, exploitation or the lack of recognition. The chapter argues, on the one hand, that the entanglements of different social categories such as nationality, class, gender, ethnicity, and others, are constitutive of any category. And, on the other hand, that identifying the social inequalities at stake in any conflict over migrant’s rights allows for a better understanding of migrant organization’s dynamics. In sum, the paper shows that social categories and social inequalities cannot be studied separately when understanding migrant collective action.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter creates a classification schema of exploitation in the workplace by drawing upon the historical development of labor laws. This classification schema comprises five main components: (1) criminal infringements, (2) economic violations of wage and hour entitlements, (3) safety violations, (4) leave and other workplace entitlement violations, and (5) discrimination violations. The chapter then uses this schema to analyze data from the MWRD, finding that the vast majority of substantiated violations against migrant workers are economic (81%) but that the other four components are also present. Important points of difference also emerge across the jurisdictions. There are more safety violations in Canada than elsewhere and a far higher number of discrimination cases in Canada and England than in Australia or California. This chapter explores the differences across the jurisdictions and provides some data on differing case success rates across violation types.

Abstract:
Abstract In the conclusion, binary logistic regression is used to analyze the main reasons for variation in violation type across the MWRD (criminal, economic, safety, leave, and discrimination claims). The seven main explanatory factors identified in the book are compared: gender, ethnicity, nationality, employment sector, visa status and visa type, enforcement policies, and the role of trade unions or worker centers as representatives. The most important factor that emerges is the national industrial relations system in which migrant litigants are located, followed by the enforcement system and the presence of trade unions when they represent migrants in cases. Factors commonly associated with exploitation of migrants, such as coethnicity of employee and employer, are not explanatory. This finding regarding the importance of industrial relations systems challenges the idea that most similar liberal market economies like Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States are converging toward a singular model. Instead, institutional differences remain important. This finding is an important contribution to comparative industrial relations scholarship. Further, courts are not universally protective of migrant rights as they are sometimes stymied by precedent and statutory rules.

Abstract:
This critical race counter-story chronicles a Black woman professor's candidacy for an associate dean position at a predominantly White institution. It is uncommon to hear the voices of those who have been marginalized and disenfranchised in the hiring process at a university. This counter-narrative disrupts the silencing of voices at the margin and challenges the master narrative of the university hiring process by giving voice to a Black woman professor's experience. Using covert racism, the researcher deconstructs the university's actions to operationalize a deficit narrative of her associate dean candidacy, while simultaneously espousing a commitment to diversity by increasing funding to an outreach program for students of color. The chapter concludes with a discussion of self-care. Black feminist thought provides the framework to understand how acts of self-care influenced the self-definition of the Black woman professor.

Abstract:
Human trafficking is a serious violation of human rights, resulting from the complex interaction of economic, social, and institutional factors. In the Republic of Moldova, poverty, unemployment, and lack of job opportunities lead to the migration of vulnerable individuals, exposing them to risks of exploitation. Gender inequalities and discrimination contribute to the increase in the number of victims, while legislative deficiencies and lack of administrative capacities hinder the identification and prosecution of traffickers. Political instability and weak law enforcement facilitate the activities of organized criminal groups. A detailed understanding of these causes is essential for developing effective prevention and intervention strategies, ensuring the protection of vulnerable individuals and the efficient combating of the phenomenon.

Abstract:
The definition of a set of informative features capable of representing and discriminating documents is paramount for the task of automatically classifying documents. In this doctoral dissertation, we present the most comprehensive study so far on the role of meta-features (high-level features built from lower-level ones) as an alternative for representing documents. We start by proposing new sets of (meta-)features that exploit distance measures in the original (bag-of-words) feature space to summarize potentially complex relationships between documents. We then (i) analyze the discriminative power of such meta-features with novel multi-objective feature selection strategies; (ii) provide new GPU implementations to reduce computational time; (iii) enrich distance relationships with labeled or context-specific information; (iv) adapt the proposed meta-features for tasks as hard as sentiment analysis. Our experimental results show that our meta-features can achieve remarkable classification results by distance exploitation, being the state-of-the-art in many situations and scenarios.

Abstract:
From the decolonial thinking originated at the end of the twentieth century, the importance of indigenous resistance practices promoted from the "taking of the word" will be problematized, a term coined by the philosopher Michel de Certeau, and appropriate in this research to refer to the development of research and literary productions carried out by indigenous researchers and writers in order to confront and re-signify the colonizing narratives about these peoples. pointing out how these productions contribute to thinking about a decolonial education, such as the school model proposed by the pedagogue Maria A. P. Pereira and her Education of Sensitivity. It is understood, based on Catherine Walsh, Paulo Freire, Márcia Kambeba, Daniel Munduruku and Albert Memmi, that the colonizer finds in scientific-intellectual knowledge devices of knowledge-powerthat underpin oppressive Eurocentric structures to justify exploitation, violence, inequality, inferiorization and discrimination, bases that still exert a strong influence on the various sectors of contemporary society. It is identified in the contributions of the aforementioned researchers that an educational model critical of scientism and the hierarchization of knowledge is possible from an educational praxis that dialogues with the diversities of knowledge and cultures, where education is liberating, promoting the overcoming of the dichotomy of the oppressor-oppressed as proposed by Freire, and is applied in the Education of Sensitivity promoted by the pedagogue Maria A. P. Pereira

Abstract:
The popularity of avocado oil has increased among consumers due to its organoleptic properties and health-promoting effects. Avocado oil in the US market has been found to be adulterated with cheaper oils like other high-value edible oils, such as olive oil, or of poor quality. A variety of analytical methods, including chromatography and spectroscopy, have been used to evaluate the quality and purity of avocado oils. In addition, recently, high-resolution (HR) NMR has been successfully applied to determine fatty acid contents and to discriminate avocado oil from other vegetable oils. Despite their advantages, these methods suffer from several weaknesses. For example, they can be either labor-intensive and time-consuming, or expensive and requiring highly skilled experts. LF-NMR has been utilized for the analysis of many food products. It is more affordable, user-friendly, and fits well in an industrial environment, in addition to being rapid and non-destructive. However, most of the LF-NMR applications involve relaxometry instead of spectroscopy, which limits its potential in food analysis. As LF-NMR has been developed into a more powerful and versatile tool over decades, here we applied LF-NMR with chemometrics to distinguish avocado oil from other vegetable oils, including olive, canola, soybean, high-oleic (HO) safflower and HO sunflower oil, and validated the results by fatty acids and triacylglycerols profiling using GC-FID and HPLS-CAD, respectively. With the exploitation of advanced multivariate data analysis, such as Random Forest, LF-NMR provided comparable discrimination performance of different types of vegetable oils to HR-NMR, despite the challenges of high oleic oils. LF-NMR combined with PLS regression was able to efficiently and rapidly determine fatty acid contents using GC-FID as the reference method for modeling. LF-NMR was shown to have the potential for monitoring avocado oil processing and authentication in many sectors, as an alternative or complementary method to conventional food analysis instrumentations.

Abstract:
Multi-view multi-label learning serves an important framework to learn from objects with diverse representations and rich semantics. Existing multi-view multi-label learning techniques focus on exploiting shared subspace for fusing multi-view representations, where helpful view-specific information for discriminative modeling is usually ignored. In this paper, a novel multi-view multi-label learning approach named SIMM is proposed which leverages shared subspace exploitation and view-specific information extraction. For shared subspace exploitation, SIMM jointly minimizes confusion adversarial loss and multi-label loss to utilize shared information from all views. For view-specific information extraction, SIMM enforces an orthogonal constraint w.r.t. the shared subspace to utilize view-specific discriminative information. Extensive experiments on real-world data sets clearly show the favorable performance of SIMM against other state-of-the-art multi-view multi-label learning approaches.

Abstract:
Multi-Label Image Classification (MLIC) appro-aches usually exploit label correlations to achieve good performance. However, emphasizing correlation like co-occurrence may overlook discriminative features and lead to model overfitting. In this study, we propose a generic framework named Parallel Self-Distillation (PSD) for boosting MLIC models. PSD decomposes the original MLIC task into several simpler MLIC sub-tasks via two elaborated complementary task decomposition strategies named Co-occurrence Graph Partition (CGP) and Dis-occurrence Graph Partition (DGP). Then, the MLIC models of fewer categories are trained with these sub-tasks in parallel for respectively learning the joint patterns and the category-specific patterns of labels. Finally, knowledge distillation is leveraged to learn a compact global ensemble of full categories with these learned patterns for reconciling the label correlation exploitation and model overfitting. Extensive results on MS-COCO and NUS-WIDE datasets demonstrate that our framework can be easily plugged into many MLIC approaches and improve performances of recent state-of-the-art approaches.

Full text
Abstract:
Leave no one behind is the central, transformative promise of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), aimed at reaching the poorest and combating discrimination and (multiple and intersecting) inequalities that undermine people’s human rights. The importance of leaving no one behind is vital in contexts of recurrent shocks, climate and humanitarian crises, protracted conflict, and forced displacement that cause disruption, deprivation, and a lack of access to basic needs. Crises often exacerbate existing inequalities and vulnerabilities for socially excluded and marginalised people, including women and girls, children and youth, older people, people with disabilities, ethnic and religious minorities, and sexual and gender minorities. Social assistance, in the form of government provided or humanitarian assistance, seeks to alleviate crisis impacts. The structures, systems, and barriers that exclude some people generally can also exclude them from social assistance in crises. Such exclusion, both before and during a crisis, can increase deprivation, reduce resilience to shocks, and exacerbate protection risks by increasing people’s vulnerability to exploitation and abuse. Crises, consequently, can disproportionately impact marginalised people. A lack of inclusive social assistance programming thus undermines rights, ethics, and effectiveness in crises – as explored in this summary briefing of the three BASIC Research working papers on inclusion.

Abstract:
Crises exacerbate existing inequalities and vulnerabilities for marginalised people, including women and girls, children and youth, older people, people with disabilities, ethnic and religious minorities, and sexual and gender minorities. Many of them face multiple and intersecting inequalities, especially people who are forcibly displaced. Social assistance seeks to alleviate crisis impacts by protecting vulnerable people and averting them from deprivation, but the same structures and systems that make some people more exposed (and excluded) generally can exclude them from social assistance in crises and further undermine their situation. There is substantial literature that already discusses the benefits and opportunities of social assistance generally. The added value of this paper is in examining the risks of navigating access to social assistance in crises for these marginalised people, and the positive and negative outcomes of accessing or not accessing this assistance. The existing evidence suggests that social assistance can improve marginalised people’s food security, help households meet their basic needs, reduce stress and household tensions, reduce gender-based violence, improve health, education, and wellbeing, and reduce negative coping mechanisms. However, it can also disrupt their social support mechanisms and expose them to violence and further risks. Such risks – some of which also apply to those who are excluded from social assistance, and which do not apply to all marginalised people all the time similarly – include neglect, discrimination, sexual exploitation and abuse, increased household and community tensions, gender-based violence, stigma, theft, and accessibility issues.

Keo, Bunthea, Amira Abdelhamid, and Eric Kasper. The Impact of Covid-19 Response Policies on Vulnerable Migrant Workers and Victims of Trafficking in Cambodia. Institute of Development Studies, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/cc.2022.002.

Full text
Abstract:
To date, the Government of Cambodia has issued at least 2,216 policies in response to Covid-19. These have largely been directed at limiting the spread of the Covid-19 within Cambodia, with clear attempts to mitigate the burden on economically- and socially-vulnerable groups. This study explored the ways in which the policy response to Covid-19 has been experienced by vulnerable migrant workers and people vulnerable to trafficking in persons. We interviewed seven social workers and independent experts, four migrant workers, and nine survivors of trafficking in order to gather evidence about gaps in the policies’ abilities to protect people and to identify mechanisms by which they impacted vulnerability. We find that, while the policies have attempted to provide protection to vulnerable groups, the majority of our respondents were not able to access it effectively. Workers in informal sectors have been particularly impacted by work stoppages since they have less bargaining power with employers and are much less able to access government unemployment support. Migrant workers trapped abroad faced hardships and discrimination, with many making risky journeys back to Cambodia or losing their regular migrant status. Border closure policies meant that many people were not able to safely return to Cambodia or travel for their livelihoods. This resulted in an increased reliance on brokers to cross borders illegally and to attempt to find work, which in turn increased risks of exploitation and trafficking at the very time when officials and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) were least able to monitor and identify violations.
