The International Labor Organization (ILO) will implement the Project “Building a Comprehensive Government Approach to Combat Child Labor and Forced Labor in Mexico.” The objective is to strengthen the capacities of government institutions to prevent and combat child labor, forced labor, and human trafficking in Mexico and in the migratory context. The project will have interventions in Chiapas, Yucatán and Quintana Roo, as well as interventions at the regional level including Belize, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala.

The project is implemented within the framework of the commitments assumed by Mexico as a Pioneer Country of Alliance 8.7, with the aim of accelerating actions to achieve Goal 8.7 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). As a Pioneer country of Alliance 8.7, Mexico adopted a Roadmap with 10 priority actions to eradicate child labor, forced labor and human trafficking, and the project will provide support to implement the Roadmap.

Mexico is also a member and co-chair of the advisory board of the Global Initiative for Fair Recruitment, which aims, among others, to prevent forced labor. The project will support Mexico to promote Fair Recruitment practices at the national level. In addition, the project will strengthen the role of Mexico in the Regional Initiative for Latin America and the Caribbean Free of Child Labor (RILAC), a regional platform that closely coordinates with Alianza 8.7. To date, RILAC has shown significant results in the region, including the creation of a South-South and Triangular Cooperation mechanism and the development and implementation of the Child Labor Risk Identification Model (CLRISK). RILAC has represented an important platform to foster alliances, innovation,
