ASEM Global Ageing Center (AGAC) is a specialised international institution headquartered in Seoul, which operates as an international hub for coordinating a wide variety of agendas regarding human rights of older persons. The AGAC Issue Focus is a biannual periodical that aims to address ageing and human rights issues in a timely fashion. The publication introduces relevant ASEM partner policies and responses to a wider audience in order to promote information-sharing and awareness-raising and ultimately enhance ASEM partner cooperation. The AGAC Issue Focus Fall/Winter Edition is dedicated to Migration and the Human Rights of Older Persons. Kai Leichsenring contributed with an overview of live-in migrant care in Europe focusing on the Austrian case. From a human rights perspective, he argues for regulating care work as a profession, monitoring brokering agencies, promoting cooperation between the home and host countries, and providing live-in care workers with access to the judicial system.
