Programa de Fortalecimiento de Capacidades para la Inclusión El programa de fortalecimiento de capacidades para la inclusión es una iniciativa conjunta entre el Servicio Nacional de la Discapacidad y la OIT que aspira a aumentar la comprensión y conciencia en el ámbito público, municipal, regional y de los negocios acerca de la contribución que las personas con discapacidad pueden hacer en el lugar de trabajo y en el desarrollo empresarial. El Programa es una iniciativa que promueve el diálogo social tripartito y se extiende hasta el mundo público estimulando el fortalecimiento de las organizaciones que trabajan por la promoción del empleo y la institucionalidad laboral en los territorios. El Programa contribuirá a generar una acción transversal y territorial con actores y generar sinergias a través de acciones de colaboración entre instituciones públicas y de la sociedad civil. Las acciones de comunicación, formación y generación de acuerdos que el Programa promoverá, se construirán con las Redes ya existentes a favor de la inclusión social y laboral y deben construirse en el lugar que acontece la vida de las personas con discapacidad, donde están las fortalezas y barreras para el acceso pleno a trabajo decente. .
Constituents and stakeholders, provincial, and local levels have promoted more and better jobs, especially for young women, men and disadvantaged groups This project aims at promoting more and better jobs in Nepal through the development of Micro-, Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs). The project is a follow-up to the Enabling Environment for Sustainable Enterprises assessment, conducted in 2017 with ILO support and full participation of ILO tripartite constituents and key stakeholders of the MSME sector. It focuses on the implementation of the assessment recommendations prioritized by the tripartite constituents and enterprises operating in four sectors – agro-based industries, tourism, ICT and manufacturing. The project interventions are implemented at federal, provincial and municipality levels in line with their specific roles and responsibilities for promoting sustainable enterprises. It strengths the capacity of constituents, in particular the private sector, to engage in advocacy and social dialogue with high-level government officials and parliamentarians so as to create a conducive environment for sustainable enterprises and improve the policies, institutions and services relating to MSMEs. Interventions create opportunities for ILO to strengthen outreach to and undertake joint work with development partners in Nepal. The project contributes to the Outcome 1.2 of the DWCP (2018-2022) and to Outcome 1 of UNDAF (2018-2022) for Nepal. It further contributes to the country’s efforts to advance towards the attainment of SDG targets 8.3 (Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services),

All inputs above will be produced in partnership with national constituents and other relevant stakeholders. Depending on constituents’ needs and requests, project findings and resources may be utilized towards the development of a skills strategy for Ethiopia to boost inclusive trade and economic growth.
Promoting Decent Work for Syrian Refugees and Host Communities in Turkey through Investment in Skills, Improved Service Delivery and Transition to Formality Turkey hosts the highest number of refugees in the world. As such, it faces the challenge of integrating more than 3.6 million Syrians under temporary protection (SuTP), including 2.1 million of working age. Around one million Syrian refugees are estimated to be working in Turkey, mainly informally and in low-skilled sectors. The prevalence of the informal economy was already a major concern for the government and social partners before the inflow of Syrian refugees. Based on its close relationship with Turkey in strengthening the enabling environment for decent work and social justice, the ILO has developed a five-year (2017-2021) comprehensive, holistic and integrated programme of support (PoS). The programme builds on ILO interventions supporting Syrian refugees in Turkey since 2015 and is implemented within the framework of Turkey’s overall response and the 3RP. The project seeks to upscale ILO´s ongoing efforts to support the formal labour market integration of Syrian refugees as well as host community members in the ten largest refugee hosting provinces. Decent work will be promoted through investment in skills, improved service delivery and transition to formality. The goal of the project is to scale up the scope of pilot activities and propose new interventions by mainstreaming the lessons learned to the overall rationale. The main indicator to measure the specific project objective is to create additional formal employment for 8,500 beneficiaries (6,750 SuTPs and 1,750 Turkish citizens-TC) over the course of 54 months and at least 30% of final beneficiaries are foreseen to be women. The project consists of the following three outputs and related indicators: Output A: SuTPs are qualified to participate in the formal labour market. 3,000 SuTP have successfully participated in the targeted on-the-job training. 1,500 SuTP are placed into formal employment through the incentive scheme after having successfully completed on-the-job training. Output B: Turkish public employment services are strengthened to support SuTP and disadvantaged TC to access the formal labour market. At least ten (10) additional One-Stop-Shops are equipped and well-functioning. At least 50,000 SuTP and Turkish citizens are reached and consulted through newly established One-Stop-Shops. Output C: Transition to formality is facilitated for SuTP and TC. Cost for Social Security Premiums for 7,000 beneficiaries (5,250 SuTP and 1,750 Turkish citizens) is paid to employers. Cost for Work Permits for 5,250 SuTP is paid. The project started in December, 2018 and lasts for an initial duration of 24 months (phase 1) and can potentially be extended for 30 additional months (phase 2) until March 2023.

Employment policies formulated in Iraq using strengthened LMI systems and LM statistics This project responds to a request raised by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (MOLSA) and the Central Statistics Office (CSO) in Iraq, within the context of the development of a Decent Work Country Program for Iraq. It aims to establish a baseline of current labour market statistics to be used for policy development while enhancing institutional capacities of the tripartite constituents and key government partners to analyse labour market data. In this regard, the project enables the CSO to implement a new Labour Force Survey in 2019, adopting a methodology aligned with the outcome of the 19th International Conference of Labour Statisticians, and contributing to a new Iraqi National Employment Policy whose development is also supported by the ILO. The project is aligned with the UNDAF 2015-2019 as well as with the UNDAF 2020-2024, currently under preparation. It contributes to the country’s efforts to advance towards the attainment of SDG targets 8.3 (Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services), 8.5 (By 2030, achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, including for young people and persons with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value), 8.6 (By 2020, substantially reduce the proportion of youth not in employment, education or training) and 1.b (Create sound policy frameworks at the national, regional and international levels, based on pro-poor and gender-sensitive development strategies, to support accelerated investment in poverty eradication actions).
AMEM: Appui à la migration équitable pour le Maghreb (new) Ce projet vise à renforcer les capacités des acteurs étatiques et non étatiques de trois pays ciblés (Tunisie, Maroc, Mauritanie) et des acteurs non étatiques en Libye, à gérer la migration de travail et à protéger les droits des travailleurs migrants, qu’il s’agisse de leurs nationaux émigrés à l’étranger ou de migrants d’autres pays se trouvant sur leurs territoires. Grâce à un ensemble d’activités d’assistance technique visant à assurer une meilleure cohérence entre les politiques d’emploi et les politiques migratoires, ainsi qu’une meilleure coordination entre les acteurs clés du marché du travail (les ministères de l’emploi et des affaires sociales / migration, le secteur privé / organisations d’employeurs, et les syndicats), le projet contribuera à améliorer la gouvernance des migrations ainsi que l’employabilité des jeunes et des migrants de retour offrant ainsi des alternatives à l’émigration irrégulière.
Promoting youth employment opportunities for refugees and host community with employment-intensive construction works in Mauritania The project aims at promoting economic self-sufficiency of refugees and peaceful coexistence with host communities through the development of employability schemes and decent jobs in labour-based infrastructure construction works. In the context of protracted displacement, the project addresses the humanitarian-development nexus by 1) creating immediate income generating activities and thus ensuring human security of refugees and host communities, and 2) ensuring sustainable employment creation by offering technical and vocational skills development with “on-site construction training” which focuses on practical learning at the actual construction sites and by promoting the use of locally available resources. In doing so, it will ease tensions between refugees and host communities. The project aims at unlocking the peace and developmental potential of decent work opportunities. This approach builds on existing research showing that employment can provide the maximum impact on developing sustainable peace and mitigating risks of terrorism and violent activities when it offers 1) Opportunities of learning and working, 2) Belongingness to society by participating in socioeconomic activities, and 3) Spaces to develop mutual understanding. Employment can contribute to peace when it supports young people in perceiving hope for their future without experiencing inequality and injustice. The project contributes to building peace and social stability by promoting a decent work environment including appropriate working conditions, occupational safety and health and non-discrimination at work.
