   RBSA: Making a Difference to Decent Work Country Programme Results

   04 July 2009

   The Regular Budget Supplementary Account (RBSA) was established at the International Labour Organization in January 2008, based on voluntary contributions from member states. The fund has been a critical resource in response to the economic crisis and the need to enhance the ILO's capacity to promote decent work, in particular the implementation of Decent Work Country Programmes (DWCPs). ILO TV reports from Zambia, Thailand, Lebanon, Mexico and Serbia where RBSA funding has allowed the ILO to respond rapidly to the needs of workers and business.
