Las recomendaciones de la Evaluación son de importancia para el proyecto y se considera su implementación de la manera siguiente: a) en el piloto de inserción laboral se ha establecido una cuota de mujeres jefas de hogar y personas jòvenes como beneficiarios de las capacitaciones. Desde el proyecto se estarán abordando estrategias en consideración a las necesidades particulares de esta población a fin de facilitar su inserción en el mercado laboral, a implementarse durante el diseño de las capacitaciones, programado para implementarse posteriormente a los estudios sobre necesidades del Mercado Laboral en las provincias seleccionadas. b) en relación a la campaña, se contemplará una adecuación para que se considere el rol clave de las mujeres adultas en la PETI, a implementarse durante la ejecución de la campaña en los medios de comunicación, programada para el primer semestre del año 2021. c) se tomará en consideración oportunamente durante el diseño de las estrategias para implementar el piloto de inserción laboral, específicamente, durante la fase de diseño de las capacitaciones en respuesta a las necesidades del mercado laboral (está relacionado con el acápite a) de esta recomendación), programada para realizarse dentro del segundo semestre de 2021. d) se propondrá dentro del marco de los planes de desarrollo de capacidades individuales de la OIT para el año 2021. SE SUGIERE AÑADIR UNA BREVE REDACCIÓN QUE INDIQUE QUE EL PROYECTO ESTÁ DE ACUERDO CON ESTA RECOMENDACIÓN Y QUE ESTÁ ADOPTANDO LAS SIGUIENTES MEDIDAS. ES IMPORTANTE PRECISAR PLAZOS CONCRETOS.

title:

6. Implement the following measures aimed at incorporating the gender equality and non-discrimination approach in the Project: (a) establishing strategies aimed at reversing the main vulnerability factors of girls and adolescent women to CL; (b) in the implementation of the campaign "Throw your dart against Child Labor" and in carrying out other activities of the third intermediate result, consider the key role that adult women can play in the prevention and eradication of CL, especially mothers of families where CL exists or are at risk of CL; (c) in the pilot program for job insertion, incorporate strategies that address the main restrictions faced by women in obtaining and keeping employment, specifically those linked to being almost the only ones responsible for domestic tasks and caring for household members; and (d) carry out training actions on the incorporation of the gender approach, aimed at the Project team. • Regarding the first and third suggested measures, it may imply previously carrying out studies to identify the vulnerability factors of female girls and adolescents, as well as the main restrictions that women face to enter the labor market, with emphasis on the economy of home care. Both issues are even more relevant in a pandemic context, since some families (especially the most vulnerable) will turn to their minor children to work and thus try to reverse the situation of job losses and income reductions; and regarding the home care economy, because due to the closing of schools and other care facilities as a result of the pandemic, the workload for mothers within the home has increased.
