The Binational Labor Justice Initiative

In 2007, CDM and Proyecto de Derechos Económicos, Sociales y Culturales, A.C. (ProDESC) launched the Binational Labor Justice Initiative to facilitate a transnational dialogue focusing on legal systems and legal tools to defend migrant workers’ rights and build binational alliances for legal support across the U.S.-Mexico border. As part of the Initiative, CDM and ProDESC published the Manual for Binational Justice, which describes U.S. and Mexico labor and immigration laws to assist advocates on both sides of the border.
