Working out of poverty

the long version

"This report is about how the ILO and its constituents can better respond to the aspirations and everyday needs of people living in poverty. It is about the direct link between decent work as a development agenda and poverty eradication. It is about the fundamental importance of equality--and in particular gender equality--to decent work and defeating poverty. It is about teaming up with other international organizations to implement the poverty eradication and other commitments of the World Summit for Social Development (the "Social Summit") and the Millennium Declaration. It is about concrete ways of targeting the poverty-fighting impact of ILO policy proposals and technical cooperation programs."--Overview.
