ARM's Advocacy
Our Advocacy
One of the main focus areas since ARM was founded has been advocating on the ground with migrant workers and migrant domestic workers against the Kafala (Sponsorship) system. Our advocacy efforts and campaigns often complement our casework and aim to both react to urgent issues impacting migrants and address long-term matters that need to change in order to bring about radical and systemic change and justice for migrants.
Over the years, ARM organized several campaigns both online and offline, calling for the abolishment of Kafala, for reversing racist policies targeting migrants and refugees, and aiming to instigate societal change alongside migrant activists, MCC members, and non-migrant allies such as Lebanese activists and organizers and alternative media and journalists.
