Gulf Labor calls on Abu Dhabi to pay off museum workers’ debts - FT.com:
"An artists’ pressure group on Friday called on Abu Dhabi to give workers building the oil-rich emirate’s high-profile museums – which include the Guggenheim and the Louvre – a one-time fee of $2,000 to help them pay off recruitment fee debts as controversy grows over migrant labour rights in the Gulf.
Gulf Labor, a group of international artists campaigning for the protection of migrant labourers working on academic and cultural institutions in Abu Dhabi, said such payments “would help relieve workers of the immediate burden of debt . . . which underpins their extreme vulnerability”."
