The Centre for the Study of Labour and Mobility (CESLAM) is a research centre established in January 2011 under the aegis of Social Science Baha. It aims to contribute to the understanding of labour and movement by pursuing four broad objectives:

• Contribute to broader theories and understandings on labour and mobility by cultivating new insights through interdisciplinary research;
• Conduct reliable, policy-relevant research on critical issues affecting working people and develop policy alternatives;
• Serve as a forum to foster academic, policy, and public debates about labour and mobility through an open interchange of ideas; and
• Disseminate knowledge to a broad range of audience using a variety of academic, policy, and media outlets.
