RTA-HTRI Conference: Generating Evidence to Support the Elimination of Child Labour, Forced Labour, and Human Trafficking

“The 3-day conference organized by ILO, IOM, and IPA will share and promote new research awarded through the Research to Action (RTA) project and the Human Trafficking Research Initiative (HTRI) Competitive Research Fund.

The goal of the event is to advance discussions among researchers, policy actors, social partners, and practitioners around the world – to strengthen partnerships and explore the logistics of refining evidence on effective solutions to reduce child labour, forced labour, and human trafficking.

The research topics encompass risk factors for vulnerability, assessment of the effectiveness of counter-trafficking, child labour, and forced labour policies and interventions, the socio-economic consequences of the COVID-19, and more.”
