End of Child Labour, Within Reach Global Report Under the Follow-up to the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles And Rights at Work 2006

"This second Global Report on child labour documents the fact that for the first time, there has been a worldwide decline in child labour, with the worst forms of child labour decreasing fastest." "The Report reviews the ways in which this has been accomplished. It is now clear that countries do not have to wait until they become rich to eliminate child labour - while economic progress is important, putting the right policies into place matters at least as much." "The Report also calls for strengthening and revitalizing the worldwide movement against child labour. Inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations and of course the ILO's tripartite partners - governments and workers' and employers' organizations - all have a part to play." "The Report concludes by proposing that the ILO and its Members adopt the objective of eliminating the worst forms of child labour by 2016 and making decent work a global goal to consign child labour to history."--BOOK JACKET.ILO is the author of 'End of Child Labour, Within Reach Global Report Under the Follow-up to the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles And Rights at Work 2006', published 2006 under ISBN 9789221166030 and ISBN 9221166031.
