comments:

Development Partners, CSOs, Researchers/ILO constituents. More than 60 are implementing child labour, forced labour and trafficking eradication programmes in cooperation with development partners and CSOs.

challenges:

Orienting and coordinating several actors and time required for the development of a joint action plan.

success:

Once the plan of action is developed, all stakeholders initiate actions to achieve the outcomes outlined jointly and contribute in achieving SDG 8.7, whereas the Alliance Secretariat documents processes and builds strong relationship with all actors

context:

After the implementation of National Master Plan I from 2004 to 2014, Nepal could not initiate coordinated and collaborated efforts in eradicating child labour. Hence, National Master Plan II (NMP II) was developed and adopted by the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security (MoLESS). The ARC Project was also designed to contribute to eradicating child labour by supporting the government in the implementation of NMP-II and addressing reforms in laws and policies.

description:

Despite all countries being committed to the eradication of CL through the SDGs and international conventions and declarations, the Alliance 8.7 and the choice of a country to become Pathfinder of the Alliance provides momentum to the collaboration between ILO, a MS and other stakeholders in effectively and efficiently addressing child labour, force labour and trafficking in children. While all countries are committed with the eradication of child labour, pathfinder countries intend to go further and faster in achieving Target 8.7; they accelerate efforts, try new approaches and collaborate with others.

administrative_issues:

By allocating a national project officer in Nepal, Alliance 8.7 benefitted from an ILO focal point on child labour
