Technical Support on Mainstreaming Employment Promotion

The focus of the project is to ensure that quality employment promotion is mainstreamed in national policies and programmes. In February 2016, Mongolia adopted its 2030 Development Vision, 2016-2030. The Vision translates Mongolia’s commitments to the 2030 sustainable development goals into the national development agenda. This project will support the development of national statistical capacity in measuring decent work, with specific attention to vulnerable employment; production of policy advocacy tools in English and Mongolian for use by ILO’s constituents, the UN system and development partners; capacity building and targeted assistance to workers’ and employers’ organizations to effectively participate in national policy debates and discussions; and technical assistance in establishing a statistical framework for reporting against the Vision and the 2030 Agenda. The National Statistical Office will be enabled to align national labour and employment statistics to internationally recognized concepts, definitions and methodologies concerning statistics of work, employment and labour underutilization. The UN Assessment Report on the Availability of Data and National Capacity Gaps with respect to SDG indicators in Mongolia will be developed, with technical inputs from ILO. Mongolia’s SDG-related national statistics will be available in LABORSTAT. Technical assistance will be provided in the preparation of the annual report on SDGs.
