Better Work - Disney Workplace Improvement: Creating stronger partnerships with local labour ministries

Creating stronger partnerships with local labour ministries The project components put forward in this proposal support an overarching goal to scale Better Work training and advisory services using new technologies and targeting diverse actors in the supply chain to support our efforts to improve working conditions at a sectoral level. The partnership between The Walt Disney Company and Better Work is based on a long standing and positive relationship. Past projects funded by The Walt Disney Company have yielded important impacts already and have reinforced a growing belief in the industry that equipping people with skills to improve themselves and their quality of work and life is what drives workplace transformation. The proposals therefore build on the successes of those projects, expanding training efforts to more audiences and geographies – through the development of a training portal and through training targeting critical actors in the supply chain including labour inspectorates andfactory groups/vendors
