Enhanced capacity for better governance of labour migration and protection of migrant workers Egypt, as the most populous country in the Arab region with almost 60% of its population below the age of 30, has become a major player in migration affairs. As opposed to other North African countries, Egyptian mostly migrate towards GCC countries, Jordan and the US, with Italy as its 6th destination only (Migration data portal, IOM 2020). In spite of major structural macro-economic reforms and improvement in the business environment, major challenges remain in terms of slow growth of the non-oil sector, low FDI and weak job creation. According to the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS), the number of work permits issued for Egyptian emigrants with a secondary degree is the highest, with an equal number of permits issued for university degrees and non-educated Egyptians . 

The EU-Egypt Migration dialogue taking place via the EU Delegation has identified six main pillars of cooperation on legal migration (scholarships for university students and cooperation and twinning of universities; matching labour supply and demand; enhancing technical training; harmonizing skills recognition standards; establishing a national online portal for mobility for better skill-market matching; national pre-departure centres; entrepreneurship skills for youth in governorates with high departure rates, adapting to the changing post-covid labour market landscape). Egypt is eager to take part in a Talent Partnership. 

During the Talent Partnership Roundtable of June 2023, there was a general understanding that the Partnership will be based on existing and upcoming bilateral agreements and initiatives, as well as on EU level initiatives to facilitate of the mobility process: namely in the areas of joint vocational training initiatives, skills validation, sustainable reintegration of workers; visa facilitation, monitoring the working conditions of workers, information and referral activities to prepare for labour migration.  So far, Germany and Italy have de

Improved regulatory framework and implementation mechanisms to promote equal opportunity for women in the world of work including in entry, mid and higher management levels in EBMOs, firms and trade unions, and for migrant workers Lebanon is a fast ageing country in the Arab States with a high proportion of older people in addition to persons with disabilities and children who require access to long-term home-based care, in the absence of public investment in care infrastructure. Prior to the 2019 economic crisis in Lebanon, care duties were mainly performed by low-skilled migrant domestic workers. As for households that could not afford paid care, the work was done by members of the family, mainly women, in the form of unpaid work. In recent years, recruitment of migrant workers in the country decreased, while the need for home-based care work remained at the same level. The decrease in migrant workers was mainly the result of the economic crisis, which led to the devaluation of the local currency and a shortage of foreign currency reducing the ability of families to pay recruitment fees and wages of migrant workers, and diminishing the interest of migrant workers to come to Lebanon. The situation was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected travel and jobs. This changing context pushed many migrant workers into irregularity and shifted some of the responsibility for care to women in families in the form of unpaid work. In case of paid care, namely domestic workers, workers do not always have the competencies required, and recipients of certain types of care, namely the elderly and children, suffer from the lack of skills and from a lack of oversight and accountability in the sector. 
The ILO will be supporting constituents and developing an action plan for care work based on the care needs in Lebanon that will pave the way to professionalize the sector through greater formalization and regulation of care services, in line with decent work principles. The engagement and findings shall inform future interventions in the context of home-based care.

Improved employment policies and business models to facilitate the adoption of measures towards decent work in selected supply chains and states, targeting vulnerable workers and youth by the end of 2023 In 2023, external pressures intensified, marked by persistent conflicts in Eastern Europe and emerging conflicts in the Gaza Strip. These geopolitical tensions compounded inflationary shocks stemming from COVID-19 imbalances and internal crises within retail companies. In Brazil, the new government faced hurdles in advancing its agenda due to opposition parties holding a legislative majority, hindering the promotion of public policies aimed at economic growth and poverty reduction.

Brazil's economic recovery, evident after the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, saw growth in GDP and employment. In 2023, GDP increased by 2.9%, with the employed population reaching 101 million, the highest since 2012. However, informality and low wages persist, with 39.5 million workers in informal employment and an average real remuneration of R$3,134. Addressing informality and improving labor conditions, including combating child and forced labor, remains crucial for social justice and a fairer future.

The ILO Office for Brazil plans strategic collaboration with Brazilian constituents over the next two years to promote labor rights. Initiatives include relaunching the Sustainable Work Program, developing a national employment strategy, and promoting responsible business practices. Additionally, efforts focus on green job knowledge, ecological transformation, national REDD+ strategy, and dialogue spaces involving indigenous peoples, aiming for a just transition with a gender perspective and adherence to Convention 169.

Increased capacities of Saudi Arabia constituents to create enabling environment for cooperative entrepreneurship and sustainable enterprises In recent years, the Kingdom has been moving toward a sustainable and diversified economy, in line with the national priorities articulated in its Vision 2030, which calls for increased employment of nationals in the private sector, reduced unemployment rates among Saudis, and increased labour force participation rates of women. Efforts to achieve these goals entail supporting small and medium enterprise's development, including cooperatives. The country aims now to develop a National Cooperative Strategy to develop the sector followed by a new cooperatives law.  
Acknowledging the important role that cooperatives play and the need to foster cooperative development in KSA, the Kingdom requires support both at the policy and legal fronts, but also in terms of statistics, the latter deemed critical for evidence-based policy development, monitoring and evaluation. Institutions, including the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD), and primary and secondary cooperatives, also require capacity-building support to enable them to effectively assume and strengthen their role in the cooperative’s ecosystem in the Kingdom. 
Overall, developing and strengthening cooperative enterprises in the Kingdom is a priority area that should be guided and informed by international labour standards and instruments, as well as international best practices.

Strengthened tripartite institutions and social dialogue processes for improved socioeconomic recovery The ILO continues to be committed to improving working conditions, advancing labour rights, and promoting a culture of safety and health at work despite the dynamic political and economic landscape of the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). The ongoing crisis highlights how vital it is to improve occupational safety and health (OSH) and labour inspection systems to protect worker rights and guarantee adherence to international labour standards (ILS) during these unsettling times. 
Building on its extensive experience in the OPT, the ILO has supported the assessment and development of the national OSH profile and labour inspection system. These efforts have provided a roadmap for improvement in line with worldwide best practices. Previous initiatives have advanced labour inspection and occupational safety and health, as evidenced by the implementation of gender-responsive inspector training and the establishment of the first Palestinian Labour Inspection (LI) Conference, which served as a forum for addressing system gaps and sharing successful regional practices. 
The comprehensive assessment of the LI system, which aimed to support the implementation of a reform plan in accordance with the Labour Inspection Convention of 1947 (No. 81), paved the way for the draft National Labour Inspection Policy and Strategy, as well as a draft National Policy on Occupational Safety and Health. These documents, created with ILO support, are critical for advancing the labour rights agenda in the OPT and will pave the way for labour inspector capacity building, as well as the enhancement of strategic compliance mechanisms through the implementation of new tools and practices. 
The ILO is now working closely with the Labour Inspection and OSH Directorate to develop a capacity-building and training plan, to complete the draft National Labour Inspection Policy and Strategy. With this approach, inspectors will be able to overcome capacity issues and successfully carry out their assi
