Abstract

Through a focus group interview, this research aims to illustrate and conduct an initial proof of concept study for our innovative mobile application. Your 2 Home is a mobile app designed to help foreign workers in Malaysia understand their human rights. With the various features in the app, it is hoped that the foreign workers in Malaysia will have a better understanding of their rights and have an excellent platform to give advice or even assistance. In this day and age of advanced technology, digital solutions have been widely used for various industries such as business, marketing, health, and many more to solve their problem. Human rights are the contemporary personification of very long-ago human principles, which develop justice, equality, freedom, and dignity, targeting to defend people and protect their liberty to express themselves and their religious preferences. Although human rights exist in Malaysia, there is so much more that can be accomplished in line with the advancement of technology. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to recommend a concept of a digital solution that can be used to solve human rights issues among foreign workers in Malaysia.
