Areas of Work

The ILO Crisis Response and Reconstruction Programme responds to the multifaceted challenges of crises through three integrated pillars:

• Country interventions to assist crisis-affected people and countries and to show how to apply ILO technical approaches.
• Strategic partnerships with other actors who work to prevent or respond to crises, including constituents, international agencies, and donors.
• Capacity building of ILO staff, ILO constituents, and others through targeted training and the development of crisis response knowledge and tools.

These pillars reinforce each other. For example, ILO/CRISIS publications and capacity building pave the way for successful country interventions. Executing these, in turn, illuminates new potential partnerships. By organizing its work around the three pillars, ILO/CRISIS amplifies the impact of its efforts to promote decent work in crises.
