FAO has always worked on one of the root causes of child labour, namely poverty, and more explicit work has begun with the launching of the International Partnership for Cooperation on Child Labour in Agriculture (IPCCLA) in 2007 in which FAO plays a leading role. The Declaration of Intent signed between the ILO, FAO, IFAD, IFPRI/CGIAR, IFAP and the IUF aims to promote cooperation among the partners, mainstream child labour concerns into activities of agricultural organizations, and promote the improvement of rural livelihoods and alternative income-generating activities as well as opportunities for decent youth employment in agriculture and rural areas. In this context, FAO chaired a technical workshop on Child Labour in Agriculture at The Hague Global Child Labour Conference 2010 and contributed to the Roadmap to Achievi ng the Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labour by 2016. The Roadmap acknowledges that the highest incidence of child labour is in agriculture (60 percent) and calls for intensified cooperation across the United Nations and the multilateral system to address the issue. -
