Brazil’s Contribution to the ILO’s South-South Cooperation Strategy - VII Annual Review Meeting, Geneva, 18 June 2013

This year the annual review of SSTC with Brazil analyzed topics related to social dialogue, combating child labour (in the framework of the III World Conference on Combating Child Labour to be hosted by the Brazilian Government in October 2013), sectoral activities, South-South and city-to-city cooperation, the Global Labour University, partnerships with the public and private sector through SENAI (vocational training), combating forced labour, and promoting social protection, among others. Cooperation has increased exponentially over the past few years and now covers over 20 countries in three continents. Much attention was given to triangular cooperation arrangements, which include cooperation with the United States, Spain, Norway, and France, the CPLP, to name but a few.
