action_plan:

ILO and UNHCR worked on a joint proposal, submitted to the Arab Fund, on enhancing TVET system in KRI to be more inclusive of women, refugees and IDPs. This project was recently approved and will enhance the referral system between UNHCR and ILO so the target populations can benefit from the ILO interventions under different projects including PROSPECTS. Families of drop-out children will have the priority in such interventions. Tripartite constituents of the ILO have put child labour issues at the forefront of the current DWCP and have been exerting efforts since the development of the plan. The ILO has also been working and will continue to work to mobilize funds and implement DC projects to curb child labour.

title:

Leverage partnerships to achieve real change, greater impact and sustainability, and to more closely align to national and international development goals, including through: a) Considering a partnership with UNHCR in future work to address child labour in refugee and IDP children to leverage their expertise in working with these populations, as well as with school drop outs. Consider their civil documentation work as a potential entry point for child labour initiatives, as well as collaborating on case management services, data sharing, and learning from UNHCR’s experience in engaging youth and adolescents in non gender-stereotypical training/skills development. b) Foster explicit linkages between child labour projects and other relevant ILO projects in Iraq, such as the PROSPECTS Programme, to leverage its focus on the nexus between protection, work and education, as well as partnerships with UNICEF, UNHCR and the World Bank. Seek opportunities to integrate the child labour portfolio into the broader ILO portfolio, with a view to achieving greater impact and sustainability.
