Abstract
ABSTRACTThe increasing trend for women in developing countries to engage in international and temporary labor migration has exposed female migrant workers to health inequities.

Through a series of focus group discussions with Filipino domestic workers in Hong Kong, we found that employers serve as stakeholders in migration health, social networking sites can be a platform for participatory health promotion, and religious beliefs and behaviors can promote favorable health behaviors.
