Some Aspects of Studying Bulgarian as a Native Language in Educational Institutions of the Danube Region
Abstract
The protection of the rights of migrant workers and their family members constitutes a key area of International Human Rights Law. This protection goes beyond merely setting limitations on what States must refrain from doing in breach of international standards. A comprehensive analysis of this field requires consideration of both positive and negative obligations through the lens of international human rights instruments. International law provides a broad array of instruments—both binding and recommendatory—in the fields of human rights protection and, more specifically, the protection of migrant workers. These human rights instruments form the cornerstone of the legal framework dedicated to migrants’ rights, underscoring the critical interplay between States’ negative and positive obligations. This dual perspective is essential to addressing complex vulnerabilities and ensuring the comprehensive well-being of migrants throughout all phases of the migration process.
