description:

Noting that child labour is many sided, it requires concerted effort for it to be eliminated. As such the ILO developed IABA approach promotes a combination of interventions that complement one another and which involve local communities into dialogue and cooperation with government entities, businesses, employers’ and workers’ organizations and civil society organizations to eliminate child labour. The capacities of these stakeholders are then enhanced to identify the root causes of child labour, promote alternatives and changes in supply chains through harmonization of policies, institutional development and community level interventions. Through the approach elimination of child labour is tackled from all sectors are by all stakeholders in a community. The idea is to mobilize the community through awareness creation, so that each stakeholder plays their role in the fight against child labour. The approach allows for close amalgamation of interventions involving prevention, removal and rehabilitation of child labourers, and protection of young workers, with those aimed at empowering vulnerable families and local communities to improve their incomes and take better care of their children. The ultimate goal is to establish child labour free zones.
