  2. This presentation will ……highlight the aims of IPEC’s research programme…present the SIMPOC survey programme and its instruments…emphasize the importance of the inter-agency UCW project for IPEC’s research architecture… introduce key lines of research and their output…discuss research projects currently underway and future priority areas

  3. IPEC has a long-standing and multi-layered research programme • Data collection / SIMPOC • Policy-oriented research • Intervention-oriented research • Impact assessments / evaluation

  4. Global Action Plan and Roadmap: The 2016 target • Data and research to support accelerated action against WFCL • Focus on hazardous work; agriculture and Africa • Closing the knowledge gap on specific worst forms • Linking up with work on education, social protection and youth employment

  5. Provides empirical evidence and analysis to shape sound policy development Facilitates project identification and the setting up of interventions against child labour Driven by constituent demand Responds to call on ILO in Global Action Plan and Hague Roadmap IPEC data collection, research and analysis programme Central aims and features

  22. Research currently underway…. • Global economic crisis: How has it impacted child labour? • National-level studies on the cost of eliminating the WFCL • Inter-agency country level policy appraisals • How to measure and build indicators for hazardous unpaid HH services • Global estimation exercise of child labour induced injuries and illnesses
