Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa

The project has the overarching goal to accelerate the elimination of child labour in Africa, through targeted actions in selected supply chains in Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Malawi, Mali, Nigeria and Uganda. To achieve this goal, the Project has identified four inter-related components (i.e. three outcomes and one cross-cutting knowledge component). The Project will work on a) public policy and good governance; b) empowerment and representation, and c) partnership and knowledge sharing among global supply chain actors working in Africa. In addition, the Project will be supported by continuous research and identification of good practices from the Project implementation and from other sources. Gender is considered as cross-cutting theme; all outcomes will address gender-strategic needs.
