- challenges:
- To implement the RSCA programme in isolation in the six countries without interaction meant that a lot of information was not shared in the early years of the programme.
- success:
- The added Regional Component turned out to be instrumental also to map labour issues in supply chains across countries and to design interventions in countries with interlinked supply chains including home-host dialogues. Such a component further opens up possibilities for Peer-to-Peer and Triangular Cooperation as well as for trade dialogues.
As an example, lessons could be learned by other countries from the situation in Viet Nam where all eight Fundamental Conventions are ratified, and a new Labour Code was introduced. It could also have a snowball effect, when one country does a lot on Business and Human Rights Due Diligence, then other countries do not want to be left behind
A concrete example was the support of the programme to the annual “United Nations Regional Forum on Responsible Business and Human Rights (B&HR), Asia and the Pacific”.
- context:
- The RSCA Programme was lacking a Regional Component in its design, but due to the widely felt need for exchange of experiences among countries halfway such a component was added in the LogFrame especially targeting knowledge management and policy exchange.
- description:
- Regional projects need to have a Regional Component for the exchange of good practices and lessons learned among the target countries.
- administrative_issues:
- Regional technical and administrative staff needs to be present in the regional hub (in this case ILO-ROAP in Bangkok).
