Promotion du travail décent dans le secteur rural au Sahel Le projet est une adaptation au contexte du Sahel du cadre global d’action de l’initiative du groupe d’action de haut niveau des Nations Unies sur la crise alimentaire mondiale . Ce cadre réaffirme l'importance d'une « approche holistique de la sécurité alimentaire et de la nutrition qui englobe non seulement la disponibilité des aliments mais aussi l'accès à l'alimentation, l'utilisation des aliments et leur durabilité ». Le projet sera articulé autour de trois axes principaux d’intervention : i) Un axe favorisant l’accès à l’aide humanitaire, ii) un axe renforçant les capacités des petits exploitants, producteurs, organisations, iii) un axe visant la capitalisation pour permettre d’élaborer un schéma type d’intervention dans le secteur rural en faveur de la promotion du travail décent en Afrique de l’Ouest. Le premier axe, en appui à l’aide humanitaire, visera à augmenter le nombre d’emploi dans le secteur rural et d’améliorer l’employabilité des jeunes (hommes et femmes) à travers le principe de chantier-école. Cette intervention permettra aussi de réduire la pauvreté, d’améliorer la protection des populations (avec un accent sur les enfants) dans les zones rurales par la distribution de revenus. Il facilitera également l’accès à l’eau (par l’usage des seuils d’épandage) permettant contribuant à une augmentation des superficies agricoles, une remontée de la nappe et une régénération des sols agricoles. Le deuxième axe, portant sur le renforcement de capacités, visera à améliorer les compétences, les techniques managériales (et donc l’employabilité) des petits exploitants, organisations professionnelles, etc. Il aura également pour conséquence de promouvoir l’auto-emploi, la création de micro et petites entreprises, de coopératives, etc. Le troisième axe sera orienté sur l’analyse, l’évaluation et la schématisation. Il aura pour objectif de contribuer à la proposition de schémas d’intervention type dans le secteur rural en Afrique de l’Ouest. Le projet visera à accompagner les initiatives en cours, notamment des agences du système des Nations Unies dans le cadre de la stratégie des Nations Unies pour le Sahel, il sera complémentaire aux autres initiatives du BIT en cours dans la sous-région décrites au titre II de la présente note, portant sur l’alignement stratégique du projet. Résultat 1 : L’accès à l’aide alimentaire est amélioré, ciblant en particulier les petits producteurs, et exploitants en Afrique de l’Ouest Résultat 2 : Les capacités des organisations professionnelles et des micro-entrepreneurs intervenant dans toute la chaine de valeurs du secteur agricole sont renforcées

Integrated Livelihood Recovery for Typhoon Haiyan affected communities This project aims to provide employment support to approximately 6,740 poor and vulnerable workers affected by Typhoon Haiyan. It complements the ongoing activities of the ILO, which together with this project will be able to reach out to just over 20,000 workers. ILO’s action in response to the typhoon is fully embedded in the Strategic Response Plan (SRP) launched by the International Humanitarian Country Team (chaired by the UN Resident Coordinator/Humanitarian Coordinator) and complements the recovery work of the Philippines Government. Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines in November 2013, affecting 36 provinces and destroying the livelihoods of about 2.6 million workers. The project will take place over 12 months and will build on the ILOs ongoing work in 5 field offices in Tacloban, Ormoc/Leyte province, Northern Cebu/Negros Occidental, Bohol and Coron, Palawan. This project assists the transition phase of the recovery, moving away from immediate and emergency response to interventions which facilitate long-term and sustainable recovery of livelihoods. The ILOs integrated approach to livelihood recovery combines labour-based rehabilitation of public infrastructure, creation of alternative livelihoods through vocational skills development and re-establishment of micro and small/medium sized enterprises. The project also reinforces and advocates for existing government standards on minimum wages, occupational safety and health standards and provision of social protection for workers.

Durable Solutions for Somali refugee returnees through Repatriation, Assistance and Promoting Sustainable Livelihood ILO seeks to support the economic reintegration of spontaneous and/or facilitated group returns to Somalia, and south central in particular, through a diversified livelihood and community-based approach. This approach aims to establish conditions that will enable returnees and their communities access their basic needs and restore their livelihoods with dignity.

Supporting returning refugees with adequate resources to re-start their lives is also crucial in reducing their vulnerability.
Prévention du VIH dans le monde du travail en Haïti Malgré la stabilisation de l’épidémie du VIH en Haïti, celle-ci reste encore généralisée et affecte surtout la population en âge de travailler. La situation est devenue encore plus difficile suite au grave tremblement de terre subi par le pays en 2010, Haïti lutte pour reconstruire sa riposte au VIH et garantir l’accès universel à la population pour atteindre l’objectif zéro (zéro nouvelle infection, zéro décès lié au VIH et zéro discrimination). Cependant, la promotion d’une riposte multisectorielle et l’accès aux services de prévention constituent encore des défis importants pour le pays. Le lieu de travail est un point d’entrée essentielle pour atteindre les personnes les plus affectées par l’épidémie. Ce projet cherche donc à renforcer les capacités des mandants du BIT pour leur permettre de riposter au VIH dans le cadre du monde du travail et contribuer à faciliter l’accès de la population aux informations relatives au dépistage volontaire et confidentiel et à l’utilisation du préservatif pour prévenir la transmission du virus. Pour ce faire, le projet apportera son appui à la définition et mise en place d’une stratégie nationale tripartite relative au VIH dans le monde du travail. Il permettra de former les mandants tripartites et de mettre en œuvre cette stratégie dans des lieux de travail, au moyen de programmes spécifiques, qui tiennent compte des besoins de la population cible. Des modules de prévention seront inclus dans des projets existants du BIT (Création de micro-entreprises et formation professionnelle dans le secteur de la construction et dans le secteur textile).

Support to ACI 2: Jobs and skills for youth - Urugay El Uruguay enfrenta importantes desafíos en materia de empleo y formación de jóvenes. La tasa de desempleo de las personas menores de 25 años alcanza actualmente el 19,7%, y entre las mujeres de ese grupo etario el 23,6%. Entre los jóvenes de 15 a 24 años en situación de pobreza, el 40% no estudia ni trabaja. En términos cualitativos, los jóvenes están accediendo a trabajos con menores niveles de estabilidad laboral, protección social y considerablemente menores salarios. Desde las políticas públicas se han implementado diversas iniciativas para combatir esta realidad, aunque con un importante déficit de articulación entre las mismas. La nueva Ley de Empleo Juvenil constituye un importante hito en la lucha a favor del trabajo decente para los jóvenes en el Uruguay. El programa busca contribuir al incremento de la eficacia, eficiencia, calidad y pertinencia de las políticas de empleo y formación de jóvenes implementadas en el país, mediante una batería de acciones que tienen como socios privilegiados al Ministerio de Trabajo y Seguridad Social y las organizaciones de empleadores y de trabajadores.
