Promoting education, fair recruitment, safe migration and decent work, the Work in Freedom programme adopts an integrated and targeted approach to prevent trafficking of women and girls in South Asian countries of origin (Bangladesh, India and Nepal) and in selected destination countries (India, Jordan, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates). It will reach at least 100,000 women and girls as direct beneficiaries.
