The mapping highlights how ILO projects use supply chains as an entry point to promote decent work. All data comes from the ILO's Development Cooperation Dashboard. This information covers active projects and reflects data available up until 30 November 2025. The map shows the geographical scope of the ILO’s work on supply chains (number of projects) and the main sectors targeted. It does not include other ILO initiatives addressing these issues through different intervention approaches.

While the ILO’s work on supply chains spans a wide range of sectors and regions, it aims to increasingly move toward more integrated approaches to maximize the impact of its development cooperation work.
