Sunshine Project

The ‘Sunshine’ Project is funded by Oxfam, and it aims to enable Wai Yin to train a group of Chinese migrants - primarily women working on the margins of the formal economy - to carry out a peer-led participatory research to highlight their livelihood realities and increased risk to exploitation and hardship.  The first phase of this work aims to gain the confidence and trust of these migrants, improve their knowledge of employment and immigration rights and language skills to enable them to access support services.  During the second phase, the migrants will be supported to conduct the research using the Sustainable Livelihoods approach with their peers and draw out policy lessons from their experiences.
