This grant, offered by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB), provides up to $13 million for cooperative agreements. Its primary purpose is to eliminate exploitative child labor in agriculture, mining, and other hazardous sectors within Peru’s Huancavelica and Huánuco regions. These areas are characterized by high poverty, significant economically active children, and low school completion rates. The initiative focuses on reducing social exclusion and promoting economic opportunities for vulnerable Peruvian households, particularly those susceptible to the worst forms of child labor as outlined in ILO Convention 182. This project targets indigenous and other vulnerable groups, aligning with Peru’s efforts to implement strategic socio-economic reforms and improve educational outcomes.
