📋 Tender Overview
ILO Myanmar today launched a self-paced E-learning programme on rights, responsibilities, and representation for children, youth, and families (3Rs), that aims to equip practitioners and those in vulnerable populations with the tools to enhance social equality and well-being.
Delivered in Myanmar and English language, the 11-module interactive course is now live at https://ecampus.iloyangon.org, the ILO’s digital learning platform. The course is also available in a downloadable offline format to enable full accessibility for those with limited internet capabilities. A certificate will be presented to participants who complete the course.
Developed by ILO Myanmar in collaboration with a team of external experts, the course targets practitioners addressing child labour issues as well as children, youth and families who are vulnerable to child labour exploitation. Packaged in an interactive and visually engaging way, it allows learners to choose and combine modules according to their expertise and interest.
With more children at risk of child labour in Myanmar, the 3Rs emphasizes the urgent need to understand child rights, workers’ rights and gender equality among children, youth and their families in at-risk communities and workplaces.
"Empowering communities through education is key to breaking the cycle of child labour. This E-learning programme provides critical knowledge and resources to those on the front lines, as well as to vulnerable families, to foster a deeper understanding of their rights and responsibilities. By doing so, we aim to build a future where every child is protected from exploitation," said Yutong Liu, ILO Myanmar Liaison Officer/Representative.
The newly launched E-learning programme on rights, responsibilities, and representation for children, youth, and families (3Rs) builds upon the 3-R Trainers’ Kit and also on the foundation established by the E-learning Programme on Child Labour launched in 2022. These were designed to equip civil society partners, social workers, employers and worker’s organizations to effectively assess and address issues of child labour within their communities.
Globally, the incidence of child labour has surged to a staggering 160 million children, with Myanmar reflecting this alarming trend where nearly one in ten children between the ages of 5 and 17 are engaged in child labour.
The ILO is the only tripartite United Nations agency devoted to promoting rights at work, encouraging decent employment opportunities, enhancing social protection and strengthening dialogue on work-related issues. Find more information about the ILO’s work in Myanmar.
