CO-Suva has been successfully working with development partners and UN funds to secure funds for DW agenda, including LLR issues. Some examples are PCCHMS program funded by UNTFHS, RBSA ILS project, UNMPTF Informal Economies Project, Labour standards in fishing vessels funded by New Zealand, Labour Migration and Climate resilience project (to be funded by Migration MPTF), Support to ILS and LLR project (pipeline to be funded by Australia AG Office). CO-Suva is currently working on RM guide to identify relevant opportunities and partners, including for LLR related projects. As to in-country presence in Solomon Islands, we are planning to hire a staff in SI if our latest joint ILO/UNESCO proposal under PBF gets approved.

title:

2) Strengthening donor coordination to benefit from development cooperation opportunities. Getting development cooperation funding to supplement ILO’s regular funding would allow CO-Suva to address LLR in a more comprehensive way in a particular country or on a specific subject matter in multiple member states. CO-Suva should actively reach out to the donor and development community to brief its initiatives on LLR. It should make sure to respond to procurement invitations from Australia, New Zealand, and other donors either individually or jointly with other UN agencies that have the same or similar stakeholders. In the long run, the ILO should consider hiring in-country officers to cover countries like the Solomon Islands and the Cook Islands in order to respond to donors’ procurement calls in a timely fashion and to meet donors’ expectations for in-country implementation capacity.
