BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE
IKS is implementing the project “Toward Social Justice and Equity”, funded by International Swedish Agency for development – SIDA, through Community Development Fund – CDF. The Overall Objective of the Project is to contribute to greater social justice by improving implementation of labor rights and labor-related legislation through enabling active engagement of civil society and social partners. A greater social justice would contribute to better distribution of opportunities, wealth and privileges in the society. This would directly enhance the condition in the labor market for all workers and especially the more vulnerable groups: women and formally and informally employed in the private sector, as the least protected categories in the labor market at risk of being poor. To achieve this, we have set the specific objectives of the Project such as:
SO1: Increase civil society and citizen engagement in reporting labor-related violations and enforcement of labor rights and Occupational Safety and Health;
S02: Promote social justice and especially OSH law enforcement across the labor-market and in public domain;
$03: Strengthen the capacities of Social Partners to more effectively represent their constituencies;
S04: Contribute to Policy Debate by analyzing, debating and initiating pol icy change;
SO5: influence and support initiatives for establishment of trade unions in the private sector in non-traditional trade union sectors.
