ILO Research Strategy

This document sets out the ILO’s proposed Research Strategy for the period 202021 as discussed during the 334th Session of the Governing Body. Building on the existing commitments outlined in the Knowledge Strategy 2018–21, it sets out five goals for the proposed research strategy and identifies the specific actions and evaluation mechanisms required in order to achieve them, including a consultative process to increase the relevance of ILO research to constituents’ needs in conformity with the ILO Centenary Declaration for the Future of Work. The Governing Body is invited to endorse this proposal and provide guidance relating to its implementation and evaluation (see the draft decision in paragraph 31).
