title:

The ILO to and pilot promising best practices to rehabilitate and protect children withdrawn from WFCL, prevention for children at risk of the WFCL, and vocational training for families with children who have been withdrawn or at risk of being withdrawn from WFCL. The ILO is best placed to provide evidence behind cost effective approaches to address the particular needs of these populations. Rapid assessment approaches should be applied, including retrospective studies of children and parents who have received the services being studied in order to understand longer term outcomes. Many of the practices that would be profiled to mainstream children into education, youth into vocational training and mothers into income earning activities may also be of interest (or underway) with agencies involved in poverty alleviation activities, including for refugees. Coordination with these agencies will be key. The ILO should also focus on the particular psychosocial needs of children who have been exposed to or are at risk of the WFCL and test scalable models in the Lebanese context. Again, this may involve an investigation of what has worked in a particular agency, and should be coupled with an assessment of capacity to deliver within government agencies and the broader NGO community—in order to make it relevant. Results should be presented in a way that is easily accessible to potential users, including policy makers, civil society organizations and potential funders. Evidence needs to be rigorous enough to be credible internationally.
