Towards the Elimination of Child Labour in Lebanon: Forging Partnerships, Accelerating Action

The Stakeholder Consultation “Towards the Elimination of Child Labour in Lebanon: Forging Partnerships, Accelerating Action” is designed to engage national and local stakeholders from the public and private sectors, academia and civil society who are working to eliminate child labour. The event will review ILO studies on child labour in Lebanon over the last decade, as well as key findings of statistical research on child labour undertaken in partnership with the Saint Joseph University. The meeting aims to build a common understanding and forge a consensus on future action targeting the worst forms of child labour.
