It's one year and counting down to the 2022 Football Men's World Cup and celebrations are taking place in host country, Qatar, but concerns are growing around the treatment of migrant workers who have been integral to preparing the country for the global event.

Human Rights Watch Australia Director Elaine Pearson says treatment of migrant workers in Qatar cannot be ignored.
