The Invisible Builders: The Human Cost of Migration in the Gulf explores the real lives, sacrifices, and struggles of migrant workers who leave South Asian countries such as Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka to work in the Gulf region. The book highlights recruitment debt, labor camps, wage theft, the kafala system, unsafe working conditions, heat-related health risks, family separation, remittances, women workers, and the urgent need for labor reform. Through human stories, research, and social analysis, it gives visibility to the workers whose labor helped build modern Gulf cities while often remaining unseen and unprotected.
