Implementing ILO Child Labour Convention 182: lessons from Honduras

Leslie Groves

Development in Practice, 2004, vol. 14, issue 1-2, 171-182

Abstract: This article explores the implementation of Convention 182 on the Worst Forms of Child Labour in Honduras. It highlights key lessons learned from a joint Save the Children Fund‐UK and Ministry of Labour project. These lessons are of relevance to similar projects addressing the application of child labour legislation and to projects focusing on institutional strengthening and children's participation. The article examines the centrality of partnership and ownership, and the value of child‐centred approaches. It also explores the capacity of NGOs to engage in national‐ and regional‐level government, and the importance of linking national‐, regional‐, and local‐level initiatives.
