The broad objective of this project is to promote social partnership and labour market capacities within selected SADC countries to address labour conflict and promote labour peace. In respect of Namibia and Lesotho the project seeks to provide support to the government and the social partners to build the systems and capacities required to introduce new dispute prevention and resolution systems.

In Botswana, Swaziland and Zimbabwe, the project seeks to review labour legislation and to develop recommendations for an appropriate legal framework for effective dispute prevention and dispute resolution strategies and services. It will provide support to the government and the social partners to build the systems and capacities required to implement new dispute prevention and resolution systems.

With respect to other SADC countries, the project will provide such strategic technical assistance in the form of advice and/or training, consistent with and directed towards an improvement in their abilities to manage labour conflict and promote labour peace.
