Ensuring that parents have opportunities for “decent work” is essential to reducing the number of young people, currently estimated to be 138 million globally, who are engaged in child labour, according to the UN.The internationally-agreed goal was to end child labour by 2025 and while the number has decreased by 12 million since 2020, millions of children are still working in dangerous or unregulated work places and are being denied the right to an education and a safer, more secure future.The Child Labour report released by the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) and the International Labour Organization (ILO) highlights the trends in jobs involving young people and suggests how the practice can be brought to an end completely.UN News' Naima Sawaya sat down with Benjamin Smith, an expert at the ILO and began by asking him to explain what constitutes child labour.

In this episode of On Human Rights, we speak with Yalda Bari, a human rights advocate and expert in women's economic empowerment from Afghanistan. Yalda holds a Master's in International Economics from the Berlin School of Economics and Law and brings over seven years of experience with organisations such as GIZ, ILO, and USAID, where she worked to support Afghan women's access to the job market and build women-led businesses. She is also the founder of Bari Search Path, a company dedicated to empowering Afghan women through employment support and training. As a fellow at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute, Yalda is conducting research on the challenges faced by women-led businesses inside Afghanistan under the current political regime. Her work aims to document women's on-the-ground experiences and develop policy recommendations that can sustain and expand opportunities for financial independence in a deeply restrictive environment. “Businesses [are] an area of hope... they can still do activities from home. We need to address the challenges they're facing and support them to make the best out of this little opportunity.” In this conversation, Yalda shares insights from her research, the resilience of Afghan women, and the importance of listening to voices that are often left out of international discussions.

Hii leo jaridani tunaangazia migogoro ambayo yameendelee kwa muda mrefu Sudan Kusini, na ujumbe wa Katibu Mkuu ikielekea kuanza kwa mfungo wa mwezi Mtukufu wa Ramadhani. Makala inatupeleka nchini Kenya, na mashinani nchini Tanzania.Viongozi wa kisiasa wa Sudan Kusini lazima wakabiliane na ukwepaji wa sheria na ufisadi unaochochea ukiukaji mkubwa wa haki za binadamu, la sivyo watahatarisha mpito wa kisiasa wa nchi hiyo, imesema Tume ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Haki za Binadamu Sudan Kusini katika ripoti yake iliyotolewa leo.Kuelekea kuanza kwa mfungo wa mwezi Mtukufu wa Ramadhani mwishoni mwa wiki hii, Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa António Guterres ametuma ujumbe wake wa kutaka kipindi hicho cha takribani siku 30 kitumike kuleta amani na kuongoza kuelekea dunia yenye yenye haki na huruma zaidi..Katika makala Anold Kayanda wa Idhaa hii kutokana na video iliyoandaliwa na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kazi duniani, anakupeleka nchini Kenya kukutanisha na mkimbizi kutoka Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo, DRC ambaye amenufaika na Mpango wa Utambuzi wa Ujuzi wa Awali kwa hisani ya ILO, serikali ya Kenya na wadau.Na mashinani fursa ni yake Ashura Hamis Sayid kutoka Tanzania ambaye ni Mratibu wa Mpango wa U-report unaoungwa mkono na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la kuhudumia watoto UNICEF ili kuwapa vijana uhuru wa kujieleza      na kutoa maoni yao juu ya maswala mbalimbali .Ameweza kutufafanulia zaidi madhumuni ya mpango huu na jinsi gani inatumika katika jamii.Mwenyeji wako ni Assumpta Massoi, karibu!  

Kama mkimbizi kutoka Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo, DRC, Celestin Mbaruku hakuwa na fursa ya ajira rasmi hadi alipothibitishwa ujuzi wake kupitia mpango wa Serikali ya Kenya wa Utambuzi wa Ujuzi wa Awali, uliotengenezwa kwa ushirikiano na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kazi duniani, ILO.Kupitia ILO Celestin Mbaruku ni mnufaika wa ufadhili wa PROSPECTS, ushirikiano wa kimataifa unaojumuisha mashirika kadhaa ya Umoja wa Mataifa ukilenga kuboresha upatikanaji wa elimu, ulinzi wa jamii, na ajira yenye hadhi kwa jamii zinazowakaribisha wakimbizi na watu waliolazimika kuhama makazi yao.Kimakosa, Celestin Mbaruku akiwa nchini mwake DRC alidhaniwa kuwa muasi, akafungwa lakini akamudu kutoroka hadi Kenya.Kabla ya masaibu haya, huko DRC alikuwa Mwalimu anayesimamia nidhamu katika shule alikokuwa anafanya kazi ya lakini kwa kuwa vyeti vyake vilipotea, hata alipovuka kuingia Kenya, hakuwa na uthibitisho wa kiwango cha elimu yake licha ya kuwa ana diploma ya mbinu za ufundishaji.Na hapo ndipo ikabidi achomoe kibindoni ujuzi wake mwingine. Ujuzi binafsi, ufundi wa kushona nguo.Celestin sasa anafundisha wanawake wadogo shughuli za kushona nguo.Hatimaye mwaka jana, 2024, kupitia mpango wa Serikali ya Kenya wa Utambuzi wa Ujuzi wa Awali (RPL), uliotengenezwa kwa ushirikiano na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kazi duniani, ILO utaalamu wake wa kushona nguo ambao haukuwa na cheti, ukathibitishwa rasmi na akapata cheti, hali ambayo imemfungulia milango ya kuomba ajira rasmi.

A version of this essay was published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/greenland-canada-panama-how-trump-2-0-is-going-to-be-a-wild-ride-13852423.htmlIn a week when a staggeringly large wildfire laid Los Angeles low, for which the ‘progressive' mayor and the governor could be partly to blame, it was also intriguing to see president-to-be Trump's statements about purchasing Canada and Greenland, and laying claim to the Panama Canal.There was also the withering attack on Britain – including direct accusations against their Prime Minister Keir Starmer – over the horrific gang-rapes of young girls there for decades. Presidential Buddy #1 Elon Musk used X (Twitter) to exhume this story of 250,000 girls (according to Musk) being turned into sex-slaves. It had been swept under the carpet.My first reaction to these – how shall I put in politely – “imperial” assertions was that Trump is being himself, mercurial, and that he was merely making flippant comments with no intention of following through. But on thinking about it, there is a certain logic to it, as outrageous as it might appear.On the one hand, there is precedent: the US did buy Alaska from Russia, and Louisiana from France. There is also precedent for invasions: it invaded Mexico and annexed, if I remember correctly, California, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and bits of several other states. Furthermore, the province of Panama itself was separated from Columbia by the US in 1903.On the other hand, there are fairly good reasons for all this. I have been of the opinion that the recent H1-B narrative was astroturfed by the British Deep State (“Whitehall”); the Musk counter-narrative on rape affects both Whitehall and its Parliament (“Westminster”) as Starmer appeared unnerved in debate with his opposition; who knows if it might lead to his downfall.Apart from any personal reasons Musk may have (he himself went through the H-1B system and may be sensitive about it), it is yet another indication that the alleged ‘Special Relationship' between the US and the UK may now be mostly a pious myth. Trump, rightly, focused on the Quad, and it was Biden, an Atlanticist, who cooked up the AUKUS submarine alliance, which seems to have achieved very little so far, although The Economist magazine talks it up.Britain, to nobody's surprise after Brexit, is spiralling down into irrelevance.Besides, the UK Labour Party allegedly indulged in election interference, with 100+ ‘volunteers' sent to swing states during the US Presidential election campaign to support Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate. This, one could argue, is casus belli.Trump has also in the past made noises about Europeans not bearing their fair share of the cost of the NATO military alliance: he prodded them to increase their spending to 2% of respective GDP, and now may want more. He does not seem to think it's America's duty to spend blood and treasure protecting wealthy Europeans from the alleged Russian threat.But the Canada/Greenland offer is not so much about Europe as it is about China. It is about the fabled Northwest Passage, the alternative polar route for trade, which becomes viable as a result of global warming. This can become a new seaborne trade route between the Atlantic and the Pacific, much of which is now through the Panama Canal.In an engaging conversation on pgurus.com, retired General and geo-strategist Rajiv Narayanan laid out the case for fending off the Chinese. He said they have been talking up the ‘Arctic Silk Route', which alarmed the Russians, who immediately upgraded the military capability of some of their Arctic Ocean outposts.China does have a problem. They are concerned about their dependence on the Straits of Malacca, which India (and possibly other Quad members) could blockade. They have been talking to the Thais about a canal through the Isthmus of Kra, and it is possible they may have grand plans of getting access to Chittagong (after surgically removing India's control of the Northeast by invading through the Chicken's Neck).The Chinese are also active in the Panama Canal. A Hong Kong firm now runs two major ports, Balboa and Cristobal, at either end of the canal. Chinese firms also run the Panama-Colon container port under the BRI (Belt and Road Initiative). They also have a railway project that is a direct competitor to the Panama Canal, the 3000 kilometer Bi-Oceanic Corridor, from Brazil's port of Santos to Peru's port of Ilo, connecting the Pacific to the Atlantic.Thus, it is not purely idle talk on the part of Trump to pinpoint Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal. There is method to this apparent madness. There are also immense mineral resources in both Canada and Greenland, which will become accessible as the tundra thaws.Canadians may well accept such an offer from the US, considering the mess their politicians, especially Trudeau, have made. The Canadian dollar is now at 0.69 US dollars, down from a peak of 1.06 US dollars in 2011. In addition, the Trump threat of 25% tariffs on Canada, if put in place, could squeeze that nation's exports.As for Greenland, its sparse population of only about 57,000 people may not feel particularly Danish, since they were actually colonized by the Danes around 1721. They may well be willing to join the US. Incidentally, we are all used to thinking Greenland is a gigantic landmass, but that is an illusion from the Mercator Projection. In reality, it is about 2/3rds the size of India, and about the same as Saudi Arabia.Be that as it may, what is most relevant to India in these musings by Trump is whether it gives any clues as to how he may affect India's interests. If he is intensely focused on China, then that is good for India. If he wants to cut Europe down to size, and to exit the disastrous Ukraine war, India would benefit. If he can end the Gaza war, great.Biden's national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, visited India recently. It is likely that the intent was to bully India into unilateral concessions before Trump takes over. I saw a new AI roadmap on Twitter that shows a) allies with whom the US will share technology (basically the Anglosphere + Japan + some of Western Europe), b) friends with which it will be arms-length (most of the world, including India), and then c) foes that will be sanctioned (eg. China).Then there is the Damocles Sword of tariffs hanging over India (Trump claims India has the highest tariffs in the world and he threatens to retaliate in kind), and these will hurt.At the moment, trying to divine Trump's foreign policy is a tall order. We have to read the tea leaves or chicken entrails, or extrapolate from whatever crumbs of information we get. This is going to be a wild ride.The AI-generated podcast on this essay courtesy NotebookLM from Google:1100 words, 11 Jan 2025 This is a public episode.

Diane shares her expertise, guiding us through the intricate balance between ethical imperatives and compliance-driven approaches. We also discuss the potential hazards of focusing solely on the business case, such as microaggressions and tokenism, as pointed out by a Catalyst report.Our discussion takes a deeper turn as we confront the challenges businesses face in addressing larger social issues of identity and inclusion. We consider the fragmentation within identity groups and the complications that arise when individuals are hesitant to identify with them due to societal perceptions. Diane and I ponder the power of unity and community, debating whether the division of employee resource groups aids or impedes their strength in collective action. We wrap up with a thoughtful exploration of the differing responsibilities between employers and the state in tackling health and social issues, focusing on the disparities smaller organizations face compared to larger enterprises. This episode encourages a rethinking of traditional strategies and roles, urging businesses to integrate disability inclusion meaningfully into their broader objectives.Support the showFollow axschat on social mediaTwitter:https://twitter.com/axschathttps://twitter.com/AkwyZhttps://twitter.com/neilmillikenhttps://twitter.com/debraruhLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/antoniovieirasantos/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/axschat/Vimeohttps://vimeo.com/akwyz

Common Cause Rhode Island Executive Director John Marion expands on his organization's statement that is critical of Governor Dan McKee and his administration's role in awarding a school reopening contract to ILO, a then-newly created firm.  This follows a report by RI Attorney General Peter Neronha, who found no criminality on the part of the Governor, but did indicate that McKee did, in fact, steer the lucrative contract towards ILO. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To say that India needs to create more jobs, is a downplay - what we need are 20 million jobs every year. But jobs can't be created out of the wishing well.We have resources, but not proper skills. We have opportunities, but not proper initiatives to boost on the employment elasticity. We need a shift from Tier 1 to Tier 2 cities. We need a shift of capitals. We need immigration-based jobs for our youths, and we definitely need the women workforce landscape to improve at the earliest.

I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journeys from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys. Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes. We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings. __________________________________Visit our Website: https://neon.fund/Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theneonshoww/Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheNeonShowwFollow us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/beneon/__________________________________Sponsor Shout OutLooking to build a differentiated tech startup with a 10X better solution?

In the dynamic landscape of social protection, partnerships and collaborations serve as vital pillars of strength, innovation, inclusivity, and sustainability. September marks the ninth anniversary of socialprotection.org. This year, we are celebrating partnerships for social protection throughout the month by highlighting the significance of alliances in amplifying social impact and ensuring inclusivity through key partnerships, instruments, and interagency mechanisms such as the Social Protection Inter-Agency Cooperation Board (SPIAC-B), the Global Partnership for Universal Social Protection (USP 2030), the G20, and the socialprotection.org platform itself. In this bonus episode, we invited representatives from the ILO and the World Bank, who co-chair SPIAC-B and USP 2030, to discuss the importance of partnerships in navigating diverse perspectives and policies within global social protection. They speak candidly about the sometimes heated policy differences and debates within the sector and the importance of collaboration in bridging these divides and driving the progressive expansion of social protection worldwide. It's a wide-ranging conversation about how far the sector has come and the significant challenges it will need to grapple with in the future.   Meet our guests: Shahra Razavi, Director of the Universal Social Protection Department, International Labour Organization (ILO) Iffath Sharif, Global Director for Social Protection and Jobs, World Bank Group  Episode Resources: Publication | Social Protection in the Developing World Publication | Report of the Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty and Human Rights 2019

Forced labor is a growing issue in global trade, with 28 million people affected and $236 billion in profits made annually. Are you aware of the risks in your supply chain? In this episode of the Simply Trade podcast, host Annik sits down with Renee Chuichiarelli, an expert on forced labor compliance, to dive deep into this critical topic. They discuss the alarming statistics, personal stories, and regulatory changes that every international trade professional needs to know. Main Points/Takeaways: - Forced labor is defined as work extracted under threat of penalty without voluntary consent. It's a widespread problem, with migrant workers being 3 times more likely to be affected. - Renee shares shocking personal stories of forced labor victims, highlighting the lack of awareness and generational acceptance of these practices in some communities. - Regulatory bodies like the ILO and US Department of Labor are ramping up enforcement, with the Uyghur Forced Labor Act expanding to cover more entities and high-risk sectors like solar panels and automotive parts. - As an importer, you need to be aware of the Entity List, high-risk sectors, customs guidance, and detention processes to ensure compliance. Educating your team, auditing your supply chain, and leveraging technology are key steps. - GTC is offering a specialized forced labor compliance course, taught by Renee and experts with firsthand experience, to provide a comprehensive, hands-on approach to this critical issue. Forced labor is a complex, evolving challenge that requires vigilance and action from all international trade professionals. This episode provides valuable insights and resources to help you navigate the risks and protect your business. Enjoy the show!
