- comments:
- Targeted users / Beneficiaries: International trade union federations, supportive donor organisations, ILO staff and representatives
- challenges:
- Difficulties in overcoming deep-rooted differences in policy between and within international organisations.
- success:
- The opportunity for the ILO to strengthen its reputation in consensus building towards a common strategy in promoting FPRW
- context:
- Defence of workers rights in the region is in danger of being compromised by differences in strategy and policy. This will not be solved in the short-term, and the ILO is not in a position to force organisations to reconcile their differences. Nevertheless, opportunities should be identified to minimise the dangers of contradiction or duplication of effort in interventions supporting FPRW.
- description:
- There are major differences in policy, approach and strategy held between different institutions of the international democratic trade union movement in the promotion of FPRW in the region. Efforts to strengthen the capacity of workers organisations are hampered by lack of coordination and, in some cases, contradictory actions by trade union institutions and partner agencies. The ILO has unique status and authority to provide an open space for constructive dialogue and consultation, and seek consensus wherever possible in support of democratic trade union development.
- administrative_issues:
- The need to include a strand of activity promoting policy dialogue within project design.
