Established in 1991, the Asian Migrant Centre (AMC) is a regional NGO based in Hong Kong. AMC carries out action oriented research on migration issues, policy and media advocacy, and capacity building for organisations working to empower, protect and promote the rights of migrants in Asia. AMC’s goal is to promote the human rights, dignity and empowerment of migrant workers and their families in Asia, to build their capacities to assert and defend their rights and interests, and become partners in sustainable, just and gender-fair social development. To further this aim, AMC has implemented a number of programs with the objectives of promoting migrants’ human rights and capacity building, strategies to help realize migrants’ economic and social empowerment, and research to monitor the current situation of migrants in Asia.
