description |
During the 1990s broad interest
resurfaced among the public and policymakers on the subject
of child labor, this time concentrating on the plight of
children in the developing world. The children summit in New
York (1990), the world summit on social development in
Copenhagen (1995), and the International Labour Organization
(ILO) adoption of convention 182 on elimination of the worst
forms of child labour (1999) are clear evidence of the
increasing international concern. In several conferences
leading up to the 1999 ILO convention (Geneva 1996,
Amsterdam 1997, Cartagena 1997, and Oslo 1997), the same
commitment to combat child labor was expressed, along with
the need for closer cooperation between international
organizations, a point emphasized especially in Oslo. With
the adoption of the millennium development goals in 2000,
the realization quickly grew that international and national
efforts to address key developmental objectives will
objectives will be hampered unless there are adequate data
for measuring monitoring and managing results; sufficient
capacity to use the data at the local level supplemented by
technical assistance; donor harmonization of policies for
setting global (rather than donor) priorities and exploring
synergies among all stakeholders; and conditional on the
previous three areas timely and relevant policy interventions. |
