International migrant workers are some of the hardest-hit groups by the pandemic. Most are now living in financial hardship abroad and unable to send remittances, while others are being forced to return home. To understand the economic impacts of COVID-19 on international migrant workers, by looking at the challenges faced by returnee migrants, and explore how they plan to reintegrate into the job market and analyze their constraints when trying to reintegrate into the local economy, this study was undertaken by BIGD in partnership with IDS on Covid Collectives where dRi conducted IDIs, case studies and observations, prepared transcription and summary report.
