Supporting the transition from informal to formal economy and addressing undeclared work in Greece: identifying drivers and ensuring effective compliance In August 2015, the European Stability Mechanism support programme for Greece was approved by the Greek authorities and the European Commission. Its Memorandum of Understanding included the following key deliverable: “the authorities will adopt an integrated action plan to fight undeclared and under-declared work in order to strengthen the competitiveness of legal companies and protect workers as well as raise tax and social security revenues”. In this context, the ILO, in close collaboration with the Greek Government and the social partners, has formulated a project funded by the European Commission, on “Supporting the transition from informal to formal economy and addressing undeclared work in Greece”. A first and unique result of this project was the preparation, through a participative and consultative process, of a Diagnosis of Undeclared Work in Greece. The Diagnostic Report was endorsed by the Greek Government and the social partners in a high level tripartite validation meeting held on 6 July 2016. It also provides a set of policy recommendations that reflects a balanced approach combining incentives with compliance measures, as enshrined in the ILO Recommendation n. 204. Reaching a tripartite agreement on the main characteristics and drivers of informality in Greece was an important step. The next challenging step was to design, through tripartite dialogue, a road map for addressing undeclared work in Greece. This road map was adopted in October 2016 by the Greek Government and the social partners. It contains a balanced regulatory and policy framework for preventive and appropriate corrective measures that will facilitate the transition to the formal economy and tackle undeclared work. A very important measure after the tripartite validation of the national roadmap on tackling undeclared work was the adoption on 28/04/17 of the new Law 4468/2017, which establishes the Tripartite Committee with equal representation under the Supreme Labour Council on undeclared work. This Tripartite Committee has been established by the Government, in consultation with social partners, and will be responsible for steering and monitoring the implementation of the roadmap, involving social partners in the design and implementation of economic, employment and social policies.
Better Work Bangladesh (SECO contribution) The Better Work Bangladesh programme (“BWB” or “the programme”), a partnership between the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), aims to contribute to improving the life of the workers, their families and their communities, and increase the competitiveness of the ready-made garment sector in Bangladesh. BWB will aim at building capacity at the factory and national structural levels, so that stakeholders will be able to identify, prevent, and address relevant problems through the most appropriate and effective means (tripartite, bipartite, individually). In practical terms this means that BWB will oper-ate on two levels: 1) Factory-level: build in-factory capacity to improve working conditions and es-tablish management systems in participating factories; 2) National structural level: assist in building constituent capacity to achieve structural, sustainable change in labour administration, industrial relations and social dialogue systems. BWB’s strategy is articulated around three main objectives: 1) Establish necessary management, consultative, coordination, knowledge, and communication structures to ensure effective and effi-cient programme operations; 2) Improve compliance with international core labour standards and national labour law and competitiveness in participating factories; 3) Establish and implement ap-propriate mechanisms to ensure accountability, coordination, and viability of BWB.
Ensuring a gender responsive approach to decent work in Cote d'Ivoire According to the ILO report Women at Work: Trends 2016, millions of women are losing ground in their quest for equality in the world of work, with significant gender gaps including in employment, pay, job quality, social protection, and with respect to care responsibilities. As highlighted in the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, much more needs to be done to ensure decent work for women. In this context, the ILO/Sida Partnership Programme (Phase II, 2016-17) will focus on key policy areas to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment. This work operationalizes the cross-cutting policy driver on gender equality and non-discrimination, leading to results under the Programme and Budget 2016-17. The project will advance the inter-related priorities of the ILO’s Women at Work Centenary Initiative, which represent key aspects of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda namely: increasing women’s access to work; making work pay; women, work and care; and combatting violence at work. It will provide targeted, results-oriented support to ILO constituents in Cambodia, Cote d’Ivoire, Jordan and in the Inter- American region. Country Programme Outcome: CIV110 - Les mandants élaborent et mettent en œuvre une stratégie intégrée de transition de l'économie informelle vers l'économie formelle The project advances Côte d'Ivoire’s DWCP priority of "decent jobs for young people, girls and boys, in the context of sustainable development" and more specifically under Outcome 1.1: "The government, in consultation with the social partners, implements job creation measures which operationalize socioeconomic integration programmes for youth, women and other vulnerable groups, which puts a particular emphasis on the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation.” It also falls under the "governance" of the UNDAF, one target of which is on strengthening the economic participation of women and respect for their rights. The project will work to strengthen the capacity of constituents and partners to promote gender equality in the workplace by ensuring that promoting gender equality is at the centre of policies to transition from informal to formal work. In synergy with the ILO’s Employment Promotion and Poverty Reduction (APERP) project it will work to develop a basic understanding of gender equality and to ensure it is integrated into employment policies. The project will facilitate the composition of a national committee on integrating gender into the formalization of work. The Committee will oversee research, capacity building and the development of a national programme of action on gender equality at work. In this endeavour it will strengthen the collaboration between the ILO and United Nations Agencies in Côte d’Ivoire, particularly with UN Women. As part of this collaboration it will work with UN Women and civil society groups to mark a national day of action against violence, sexual harassment and violence in the workplace.
Resilient Employment and Livelihood through Enterprises and Skills Development The project will aim to reduce further income loss due to natural disaster to effected SME’s and individuals by enhancing business and skills resilience through better preparedness. To achieve this, the project will deliver trainings, assessments and surveys, capacity building for government officials, including linking informal workers and SME’s to superannuation and micro insurance. The ILO technical tools used for value adding to what was provided pre-cyclone, will be the development of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) strategies in Start & Improve Your Business (SIYB) training, creating efficiency and diversification through Value Chain Management (VCM), local economic development (LED) and Business Continuity Planning (BCP). The project target group will be affected SME’s in agriculture, livestock and fishing and inclusive of women, youths and persons with disabilities. The target locations will be in Ra, Ba, Cakaudrove and Bua, with only an LED assessment done ion Lomaiviti. The direct beneficiaries are community based informal SME’s and individuals that operate them, including individuals wanting skills in construction/building. The ultimate beneficiaries are the dependents of the SME’s and individuals who reside in affected provinces, districts and villages. This project will provide direct employment for 350 individuals, support 2,310 dependents in 51 villages in 5 most affected provinces.
Economic growth and economic governance The United Nations Development Assistance Plan (UNDAP) is the business plan of 20 UN agencies, funds and programmes in Tanzania for the period July 2011 to June 2015. This 'One Plan' for Tanzania supports the achievement of the international development goals, the Millennium Declaration and related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), national development priorities which are consistent with the MDGs, and the realisation of international human rights in the country, including the right to humanitarian assistance for refugees. The implementation modalities within Delivering as One (DaO) ensure efficiency and reduction in costs whilst minimising unnecessary duplication of effort in interactions between the UN and national systems. The programme focuses on strengthening the country's enabling environment for the fulfilment of human rights and pro-poor growth, building national capacity to deliver basic services while increasing coverage and quality, and responding quickly through humanitarian assistance which is tied to long-term development objectives. With the exception of direct programme delivery in emergency and refugee assistance and school feeding (5 percent of UNDAP key actions), UNDAP strengthens and builds national capacities of state and non-state actors in policy and programme implementation, budgeting and strategic financial allocation, monitoring, evaluation and resource mobilisation. UNDAP supports and contributes to the three clusters of MKUKUTA and MKUZA II. In Cluster 1, UNDAP proposes support for capacity development aimed at strengthening the key drivers of inclusive pro-poor economic growth, including pro-poor sector policies, agro-productivity and manufacturing linkages enhancement, improved employment opportunities and productivity of low-income entrepreneurs and wage earners, greater human development outcomes from trade, environmental and climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies (23 percent of UNDAP total programme budget). The UN plan in Cluster 2 targets enhancements of sector partner capacities in Education, Health and Nutrition, HIV and AIDS, WASH and Social Protection for sustained and rapid achievement of the MDGs (42 percent of UNDAP total programme budget). The UN programme for Cluster 3 addresses the enabling environment for development - effective governance and delivery of public services, democracy, and further fulfilment of the GoT's international treaty obligations, emergency preparedness and response, and continued solution-focussed assistance to refugees (35 percent of UNDAP total programme budget).

Empowering Child Domestic Workers in Peru This is a 5 year project funded by Comic Relief. It has been developed from direct experiences and lesson learning from collaborative work between AGTR and Anti-Slavery International over the past 10 years. AGTR is the lead implementing organisation in Peru with day-to-day responsibility for in-country co-ordination and delivery.

Recognising that the elimination of child domestic work (and the necessity for it) is a very long-term goal, the specific objectives of the project are to reduce the vulnerability of CDWs to abuse and exploitation and remove the negative impacts that domestic work has on the emotional and physical well-being of children, on their personal development and on their educational achievement and future life chances. 


The programme supports children in domestic work to feel confident to claim their rights and improve their situation by providing direct services as well as mentoring them in asking for that change. The project also seeks to achieve a fundamental shift in the perception of child domestic work within society, at all levels, from policy-makers to duty bearers, employers, the families of CDWs and the public at large. By the end of the project, all beneficiaries will have improved self-esteem and confidence, enabling them to play an active role in improving their lives and diminishing the abuse they often are victims of. The project also supports new beneficiaries: live-in CDWs and CDWs outside of Lima.

Finally, the project is enabling AGTR to replicate its model of intervention with new groups and organisations.
Eradicating forced child begging in Senegal Up to 100,000 children in residential Quranic schools (daaras) in Senegal are forced to beg on the streets for around 5 hours each day; and many suffer mistreatment or neglect from their Quranic masters (marabouts). Most residential daaras do not charge students (talibés) for food, accommodation or studies (almost exclusively rote learning of the Quran), but instead send the children out to beg for the marabouts. Far from their families and living in squalid, unsanitary conditions, talibés are materially and emotionally impoverished, vulnerable to disease and poor nutrition; and subject to physical or psychological abuse if they fail to meet their begging 'quotas'. Talibés leave the daaras poorly educated and socially ill-equipped for future life. Those fleeing mistreatment often end up living on the streets. The daara system is an accepted facet of Senegalese society, which still largely fails to appreciate the depth and prevalence of the violence, coercion and poor living conditions commonly experienced by residential talibés. A State regulated and assisted modern daara programme is the only viable long-term solution to forced child begging and associated mistreatment of talibés. But to achieve it, all parties need to actively embrace change rather than merely accept the principle. The case for reform is all but won; and yet the reform momentum is still being driven by actors outside of the main stakeholders. Meanwhile, there is an imperative to respond to the immediate needs of those talibés currently suffering in slavery-like conditions. The project addresses these needs whilst also reinforcing and progressing the longer-term processes; by integrally linking the direct service provision with advocacy action at both local and national levels, thereby contributing to the pressure for reform, and by setting community support to daaras in a context requiring corresponding action by marabouts on the rights and welfare of the children in their care. The promotion of open and constructive dialogue between communities and marabouts is central to this approach.
Assist Haliya Community (HC) to achieve full rehabilitation from slavery & Labour Exploitation (LE) IMPACT: Haliya communities are free from slavery and labour exploitation and actively participate in their social and economic development (SDGs 8 & 10).

Supporting Community Schools for Slave Children in Niger Since 2007, Anti-Slavery International has been working with Timidria for the eradication of slavery in Niger through education for children of slave descent. The initial community schools programme funded by Comic Relief (2007-2012) saw the creation of six community schools in villages recently formed by people emerging from slavery. At the end of this period, lessons from the project (including the recommendations from the final evaluation and consultations with project beneficiaries and stakeholders) informed the strategy of the second phase of the community schools programme (2013-2017). In addition to sustaining and expanding the capacity of the six community schools, the current programme therefore focuses on the following: 

•	Intensifying the collaboration between the project and the government to promote the integration of the community schools into the mainstream education system;
•	Facilitating and supporting children’s transition to secondary schools;
•	Promoting more State investment in villages formed by people of slave-descent, particularly to create new schools; 
•	Advocating for multilateral agencies, development organisations and international rights mechanisms to prioritise descent slavery issues within their policy-making;
•	Conducting awareness-raising and advocacy trainings for the communities to encourage their direct involvement with policy-makers at the local and national level;
•	Increasing efforts to promote child participation through peer-support systems, mentoring and representation;
•	Maximising links between schools and communities through parents’ associations and mothers’ associations;
•	Expanding income-generation support, targeted at women, as a means to promote the communities’ economic independence.

2024 SY4044 Syria Joint Response The overall objective is to provide a comprehensive and integrated package of Education, Protection, Health, Nutrition, Shelter, WASH and Livelihood services in the Northwest and Northeast NGCA of Syria.
2023 AFG049 * Supporting Humanitarian Assistance and Protection in Afghanistan (SHAPE) The Solutions for Inclusive and Integrated Protection Services (SIIPS) project is part of the Supporting Humanitarian Assistance and Protection in Afghanistan programme (SHAPE). 

The SIIPS project aims to increase protection services for women, children, and persons with disabilities in Afghanistan.

The three main goals of the project are:
- Community structures are able to prevent risks and respond to unmet protection needs thereby reducing the adoption of negative coping strategies
- People's access to humanitarian assistance and protection services is enhanced, especially for persons with disability  
- Survivors of gender-based violence and child abuse are provided with timely support tailored to their specific needs through case management services and referral mechanisms.
2024 SS4026 South Sudan Joint Response 1. Strengthened agency of conflict affected boys, girls, women and people with disabilities to identify, prevent and respond to protection threats (Child Protection, MHPSS, GBV, Sexual Reproductive Health Rights). 

2. Improved learners’ access to learning facilities and learning outcomes (literacy and numeracy) through alternative and accelerated teaching and learning methodologies. 

3. Strengthened socio-economic resilience of crises-affected populations (affected conflict/displacement, climate change, economic, and GBV), including youth at risk of recruitment into armed forces and armed groups
2024 CD4034 DRC Joint Response The overarching key problem in all conflict-areas of the DRC is the lack of protection of civilian populations. Both the national armed forces (FARDC) as well as several armed groups frequently commit abuses against civilians. Sexual and gender based violence (SGBV) specifically is a severe issue, with rape used as a weapon of war and high levels of domestic violence. Protection must be mainstreamed in all sectors and interventions of the DRC JR to reduce the risk of SGBV and break the cycle of violence and trauma among people who have lost everything. Stand-alone protection activities will also be designed and implemented to provide assistance to the most vulnerable individuals and communities, with a specific focus on children and women. This could include, but is not limited to, provision of psychosocial support to survivors of SGBV or other forms of violence,  strengthening community networks in the protection of the child, establish and train Community Action Groups, faith leaders and community leaders and hold community dialogues on the prevention and awareness of protection issues. Key objectives (goals):

1) The quality of education and friendly school environment accessed by school-aged children affected by conflicts and natural disasters in Fizi and Kalehe territories is strengthened. 

2) Communities protect the children against violence, abuse, exploitation and neglect and children psychosocial wellbeing is improved.
