- Child labour
- category:
- Child labour, forced labour, human trafficking and slavery
- comments:
- All targeted beneficiaires involved with and in CL and FL
- challenges:
- The negative lesson is that poorly designed or under-supported interventions tend to fail. Expectations need to be set and preference is given to avoiding high expectations, ambitious targets, and short timeframes.
- success:
- Long investments give projects and interventions time to evolve and to learned and to pivot and change in response to changing conditions, preferences, and priorities.
- context:
- While CL and FL should not occur, the reality is they do, and they require attention. Investments need to be realistic that CL and FL do not just disappear but require changes in mindset, awareness of the issues and targeted strategies to address, particularly if livelihoods and household income are dependent upon it.
- description:
- CL and FL interventions require a long-term commitment involving a variety of approaches and methodologies to address issues in a systematic, context specific and responsive manner. Standardised approaches, while useful and informative, do not substitute the development of target approaches that meet the expectations of national partners and counterparts.
- administrative_issues:
- Influences all departments of the ILO as it needs to be considered for all project interventions (not just CL and FL).
