The Political Economy of Philippine Labor Migration

April 26, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm



The Philippines is one of the major labor-exporting countries. The massive OFW phenomenon has continuously generated positive contributions to the Philippine economy-high foreign exchange reserves, positive balance of payments, education, small-scale enterprises by families receiving remittances, and improved knowledge and skills by returning OFWs. However, the downside costs receive little attention.

The forum Political Economy of Philippine Labor Migration expands critical discourse on the Philippine labor export policy and its long-standing socioeconomic implications.
