Book (stand-alone)High-profileFAO framework on ending child labour in agriculture 2020The purpose of the FAO’s framework is to guide the Organization and its personnel in the integration of measures addressing child labour within FAO’s typical work, programmes and initiatives at global, regional and country levels.

The FAO framework is primarily targeted at FAO as an organization, including all personnel in all geographic locations.

The framework is also to be used as a key guidance to assess and monitor compliance with FAO’s environmental and social standards addressing prevention and reduction of child labour in FAO’s programming.
