Since its foundation as a non-profit entity, Centro Binacional para el Desarrollo Indígena Oaxaqueño (CBDIO) has been dedicated to implement projects on worker’s rights, which provides orientation, education, training, counseling and referrals. The organization has also promoted intensive training on professional ethics of indigenous interpreters, to serve as a medium of communication between monolingual indigenous migrants and various government agencies and other entities.
