action_plan:

The IRToolkit has been entirely translated in Spanish and a good part of the modules have been translated in French. Training activities and training of trainers have been planned in collaboration with Labour Law and Social Dialogue Specialists as well as with ACTRAV and ACT/EMP Specialists in the Region and in particular Colombia, Haiti, Nicaragua and a pilot for an adapted curriculum of the IRToolkit to Latin America in Honduras. The IRToolkit will be used directly for training activities in Cameroon. IRLex has been used and will continue to be used by Labour Law field specialists in the new phase of the labour law reform process in Vietnam, Mongolia and to support a workshop on labour reform in Tanzania. It was also key to informing technical advice provided in Greece. Opportunities to make the database available in French and Spanish have been explored but have proven to be highly resource-intensive, and cost-prohibitive, given the focus on roll-out and delivery at country level, made more difficult in the context of COVID. By the end of the year, all ll Labour Law specialists at field level will have been trained to operationalize the database in every case were the office is called to provide its technical support in labour law or institutional reform processes in the area of industrial relations. The SAM-SDI is being produced in English, French and Spanish and will be shared with specialists in all regions for its application at country level. Other translations may be undertaken in due course in response to demand

title:

The ILO should ensure better regional balance in the next phase of the outcome based funding. While the evaluator takes note of the absence of Industrial Relations specialists and development cooperation projects in the Americas and to a lesser extent in Africa, the ILO should seek alliances with other specialists – NORMES or Labour Law- to disseminate the tools and promote their use. This work could start with the translation of the tools into French and Spanish. For IRLex, the provisions in Spanish should be made available by the academic institutions.
