description:

While the SHIELD concept was developed by DSWD in the Philippines, the project provided valuable technical and financial support to develop the concept into the SHIELD initiative, develop the CLLR, provide computers, and pilot SHIELD in four project communities. Based on experience in the pilot communities, SHIELD appears to be effective at identifying, validating, and withdrawing children from child labor situations as well as linking child laborer households with government services. The government intends to use SHIELD as one of its primary strategies to withdraw one million child laborers by 2025. Based on the findings related to SHIELD, the evaluators opine that it is a good practice and could serve as a model that ILO and USDOL could apply to other CL prevention projects that have CL monitoring and withdrawal interventions.
