FOR RESEARCHERS

We ask all researchers, statisticians and information managers to help make the invisible visible, by considering the following actions.

1. Conduct both quantitative and qualitative studies with working children and their families, under the conditions of ILO 182 /Recommendation 190 using action participatory methods by:

  • Developing an accessible and understandable database on the issue.

  • Determine the magnitude of the sector from national surveys. If this is unavailable, work out its inclusion in national surveys.

  • Document perceptions of employers.

2. Present models of effective approaches and programs.

3. Practice ethics in the conduct of researches, especially sensitivity to children's and women's issues.
