Tackling the drivers of child labour and modern slavery - a child-centred approach - Implementation Phase:- Child Labour: Action Research Innovation in South and South Eastern Asia (CLARISSA) - Implementation phase
ChildHope UK participates as part of a consortium on this programme, lead by The Institute of Development Studies, UK (IDS). ChildHope UK delivers the activities in Nepal and Bangladesh with local partners Voice of Children and Grambangla Unnayan Committee respectively. IDS - "This programme will co-develop with stakeholders, innovative and context-appropriate ways to increase options for children to avoid engagement in hazardous exploitative labour. The primary beneficiaries will be children in modern slavery and the worst forms of child labour and those who are vulnerable to being drawn into it. The families of these children will benefit from greater resilience to shocks, better options for their children’s safe and healthy future and less intra-family stress and conflict. Businesses will benefit from practical solutions to child-labour free supply chains. Policy makers, NGOs, and researchers will benefit from a knowledge of what works. Our programme responds to six of seven DFID priority areas: responsible business; children’s agency; gender sensitivity; children in conflict and crises; drivers of vulnerability and vulnerable groups; and evidence. We also respond to two of four sectoral priorities: manufacturing and domestic servitude. The work will contribute to meeting Sustainable Development Goal Target 8.7 (eradicate forced labour, end modern slavery and human trafficking),and mark a step change toward the goal of eliminating the worst forms of child labour expressed in ILO convention 182 and article 190. The consortium takes as its starting point a child’s right to protection from exploitative work (Art. 32 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child [UNCRC]) and the right to participate in decisions that affect them according to their evolving capacity (Art. 12 of the UNCRC)."
