SEED seeks to unlock the potential for creating more and better jobs in the small enterprise sector.
Now SEED is working with governments, social partners and communities to craft new policy tools, invigorate entrepreneurship and management training and involve small business in new markets. The Programme conducts research on what works where and why to boost employment through small enterprise development. As one of the ILO's new InFocus Programmes, SEED builds on the ILO's thirty years of experience in supporting small enterprise development. SEED's mission is to strengthen understanding of how development of this economic sector can better serve employment goals. Most importantly, this knowledge is being put to work through policy guidance, technical assistance and international advocacy.
