Developing the capacity to promote trade union affiliation and collective bargaining coverage

The ILO will provide technical assistance to the trade union confederation to develop and implement a strategy for both objectives. Since the confederations do not have reliable data on current affiliation and collective bargaining agreements, technical assistance will be provided for the collection of this data and the creation of databases. The agreement database will collect the main provisions of the agreements. The initial data collection will provide a base line for the project. The ILO will also provide technical assistance in the systematic documentation and sharing of good practices regarding membership and organization drives and campaigns as well collective bargaining negotiation strategies. The project will equip each confederation with computers and teleconferencing equipment. Technical assistance will be provided for a set of tool kits for each objective.
