The results were first discussed during a tripartite workshop in Kiev in May 2003. A follow-up workshop with representatives from government, workers and employers’ organisations as well as NGOs from four different countries of South-eastern Europe took place in January 2004. It resulted in important recommendations some of which are now put into practice by ILO technical cooperation projects in Ukraine.
