action_plan:

Not accepted. The recommendation seems to be based on the fact that 70% of all child labour happens in agriculture. When discussed at an earlier stage within the Alliance 8.7, no clear need and no leadership emerged to make an Action Group on rural development a priority. In any case, there seems to be more appetite for working on crisis, conflict and humanitarian settings, but alternative working modalities have been found for this already.

title:

Support the Action Group on Rural development under Outcome 4 – Alliance 8.7. Addressing the root causes of CL, FL and HT implies addressing informality, access to schooling, and poverty. Global supply chains are an essential entry point to trigger change, but further work needs to be done on the ground. Under Outcome 4, Alliance 8.7, it would be advisable to support the action group on rural development (since seven out of ten children in CL around the world are found in agriculture) and education (root causes). Looking for synergies between that Group and the Supply Chains Action Group is also advisable. Strengthening synergies among the different UN agencies in the fight against CL, FL and HT in a way where each agency can ensure their expertise is a must.
