Research to Action II (RTA II): Using Knowledge to Inform Action for the Elimination of Child Labor and Forced Labor

The proposed project will generate and mobilize knowledge to promote more effective, evidence-based action on child labor and forced labor in the context of the fundamental principles and rights at work. Guided by an external International Advisory Board (IAB),1 and building on long-standing ILO engagement with Member States and partner organizations through research cooperation, Decent Work Country Programs, the Alliance 8.7 Pathfinder Country Initiative, the 8.7 Accelerator Lab and other initiatives, the project will consolidate and extend the tools developed through phase 1 of the RTA and MAP16 projects, strengthen statistical and research capacity within and outside governments, produce policy-relevant research, and mobilize knowledge around a common research agenda to advance fundamental principles and rights at work (FPRW).
