Cooperation and partnerships with relevant international and regional organizations will be pursued with the aim of coordinating policies and initiatives for the promotion of employment and decent work for crisis prevention and response. Cooperation will be strengthened and new activities developed with current partners. Ongoing joint initiatives will be expanded and opportunities for collaboration with new partners will be explored.


Advocacy campaigns specifically addressed to international partners will promote the use of Recommendation No. 205 as a common working tool contributing to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development – particularly to the realization of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8 on full, productive employment and decent work, SDG 1 on ending poverty, SDG 13 on climate change, and SDG 16 on the promotion of just, peaceful and inclusive societies – and to the promotion of prevention as a crucial aspect for preserving stability and sustaining peace and resilience. In this context, Recommendation No. 205 provides a unique and timely platform for advocating human rights, including fundamental rights, employment and decent work as critical ingredients focusing on root causes to prevent crises and sustain peace.
