  1. The International Labour Conference: A commemoration of a century of landmark achievements in the area of labour and decent work

    21 December 2011

    The ILO has played a role at key historical junctures- the Great Depression, decolonization, the creation of Solidarnosc in Poland, the victory over apartheid in South Africa and today in the building of an ethical and productive framework for a fair globalization. International labour standards and the broad policies of the International Labour Organization are set by the International Labour Conference (ILC). 2011 marked the 100th anniversary of the International Labour Conference (ILC). Here are some of the most historic achievements of the ILC.

  1. After years of war, many people in Cambodia were handicapped by landmines and are forced to earn a living by begging in public places.
