This working paper examines the conditions and challenges faced by female labor migrants from Nicaragua. It provides a comprehensive analysis of their vulnerabilities to exploitation and trafficking during different stages of migration, including recruitment, transit, and employment in destination countries. The study highlights gender-specific issues intersecting with other forms of discrimination, such as nationality, race, and economic status, which compound the risks faced by women. The paper aims to inform and improve policies, initiatives, and tools for protecting women's rights, with a focus on addressing gaps in legislation, governmental policies, and private sector practices. It also evaluates the economic and social impacts of migration, emphasizing the role of remittances and the empowerment of women as economic agents. The intended audience includes policymakers, civil society organizations, and international agencies working on labor migration and gender equality.
