The Italian government funded a $34 million agreement to support the implementation of the National Action Plan for Combating the Worst Forms of Child Labour in Egypt and Supporting Family (2018 – 2025).
Egypt’s Minister of International Cooperation Rania Al-Mashat witnessed on Friday the signing of seven development grant agreements implemented in partnership with the International Labor Organization (ILO) and United Nations organizations and programs.
The partnership will involve completing the ‘Inspection Automation System’ and supporting the Child Labor Unit’s efforts within the ministry, said Minister of Labour Hassan Shehata.
Shehata further added that the agreement aims to find alternatives that can enhance family incomes to reduce the incidence of school dropouts, a primary driver of child labour.
