This course will look at the role of CSR in today’s globalized world of work and at the potential of private initiatives to contribute to the respect of labour rights and the achievement of “decent work for all”. It will provide participants with an overall understanding of the current trends and challenges in CSR, and with an overview of ILO instruments and other international frameworks that can assist those engaging in dialogue with multinationals and other enterprises.

The course aims to strengthen the capacity of institutions/organizations to promote the application of ILS in the framework of CSR policies and practices.
