Guinée Bissau has been a member of the ILO since 1977. Following a participatory process that includes worker and employer representatives in the country, together with the support of the ILO, the country has adopted a Decent Work Country Programme to promote decent work and employment creation. The ILO provides support for the implementation of this programme through policy development and capacity building in the country.
