TED: A path to social safety for migrant workers | Ashif Shaikh

The video discusses global migration, highlighting the struggles of migrants who move not for opportunities but survival. It focuses on India's internal migrants, who contribute significantly to the economy but lack access to safety nets. Despite a robust benefits system, many migrants face barriers in accessing these resources. The Migrant Resilience Collaborative aims to address these challenges by improving benefit delivery and creating feedback loops between communities and policymakers. The initiative has already helped millions and plans to expand across South and Southeast Asia, emphasizing the need to recognize and support migrant contributions.
