Additional details
Access project dashboardThe "Ending child labour in supply chains: Addressing the root causes of child labour in supply chains through an area-based approach" (CLEAR Supply Chains) project, co-funded by the European Union, brings together the International Labour Organization (ILO) as the leading UN agency, the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), the International Trade Centre (ITC) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) to address jointly the root causes of child labour, with a primarily focus on the coffee supply chain, and to leverage existing efforts in the minerals supply chain, particularly in cobalt.
The project is implemented within the framework of the ILO 8.7 Accelerator Lab, an initiative established by the ILO in 2021, aimed at accelerating progress on the eradication of forced labour and child labour by optimising the effectiveness of development cooperation interventions.
