Hello All,

Though we totally missed the boat with this topic for the forthcoming
issue, there has been some interesting discussion in the office about
the issue of organising migrant labour and the role of religious groups
in this process raised by Hari at last editorial meeting. This seminar
which is local and on the horizon may just provide the platform or a
useful place to begin research to follow this up:

City Centre Seminar - Valuing migrants in the city: justice for
migrant workers

*Venue :* City Centre Seminar room [ map
]
*Time :* 3.30-5.30pm

Speakers confirmed:
Global Cities at Work project, QMUL
Don Flynn, Migrant Rights Network
Austen Ivereigh, London Citizens, Strangers to Citizens campaign.

This seminar will explore the situation facing migrant workers in low
paid employment in London today. Original research data will be
presented alongside arguments about the need to protect and extend
rights for migrants working in the UK.
