IOE Leaders Initiative to End Child Labour: Kick off event

On 4 March 2021 (13:30–15:00 CET), we kick off IOE's initiative aimed at collectively achieving SDG 8.7 by 2025 together with relevant stakeholders.

2021 marks the International Year for the Elimination of Child Labour. The International Organisation of Employers (IOE) is launching a major campaign this year as part of this worldwide effort – IOE Leaders' Initiative to End Child Labour. The campaign aims to bring the power of the private sector to global initiatives to eliminate child labour in all its forms by 2025.

This kick-off digital conference features a range of international child labour experts from the UN, employers organisations and youth-led civil society institutions. They take part in an exchange on what has been achieved and the next level of concrete actions required to eradicate child labour by 2025. The kick-off event also highlights IOE’s campaign activities for 2021 including the launch of the call for submission to the IOE International Elimination of Child Labour Changemaker Award.
