UN Women: Do Dreams Have Borders?
Across Southeast Asia, many women migrate in search of decent work and safer conditions so they can support their families and create better futures for their children.
To mark International Migrants Day 2025, we worked with women migrant workers in Rayong province to better understand their experiences, dreams, and hopes through a participatory storytelling workshop. Their reflections shaped the exhibition "Do dreams have borders?" presented this week at the International Migrants Day Symposium at Chulalongkorn University.
The exhibition is organized by UN Women under the regional PROTECT project, funded by the European Union and jointly implemented with the International Labour Organization, UNICEF, and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. The project promotes decent work, reduces vulnerabilities in migration, and supports the rights of women migrant workers and migrant children across Southeast Asia.
