Child Labour Platform

The Child Labour Platform (CLP), a membership-based thematic work stream of the UN Global Compact Human Rights and Labour Working Group, is open to companies committed to contributing to the effective elimination of child labour, as well as to UN agencies, trade unions, business associations and other relevant stakeholders. The CLP will facilitate the exchange of experiences and offer a number of services to its members. By becoming a member of the CLP, the “Party” will benefit from technical assistance from ILO child labour experts in collaboration with the Human Rights and Labour Working Group, as well as other technical units of the International Labour Office. Members will also have access to annual CLP conferences, ad hoc training workshops and meetings, webinars and updates to child labour legislation and policies. These events will also be organized and managed by the ILO. The CLP will also host a members-only website that will contain publications, communities of practice and an events board. The CLP may also form sector and/or theme-based working groups around tailored research or workshops/conferences in relevant countries and sectors, drawing on ILO’s large network of sectoral and child labour expertise, including from other UN agencies.
