The plight of migrant workers in Qatar

Oct 28, 2022

Qatar’s hosting of the upcoming 2022 World Cup has attracted thousands of migrant workers to build stadiums and other infrastructure. These foreigners left everything behind in search of a better life. But once in Qatar, they often experienced exploitation: unpaid wages, confiscated passports and extreme working conditions that have led to several thousand deaths, according to various NGOs. Some migrant workers agreed to speak to our reporters Chloé Domat and Rammohan Pateriya for this special full-length report. They explain how their Qatari dream has turned into a nightmare, even if Doha also offers some opportunities for upward social mobility. #Qatar#Qatar2022#FIFAWorldCup
