Demystifying the Jewel Called the ILO : A Labour of Love

Abstract

It is not easy to share what the International Labour Organization (ILO) is about, and what makes it one of the most important institutions in the world, without using jargon that completely loses most people who are not part of the environment that makes it function. In other words, these are the people who are the mandate givers, members of constituencies at national level and therefore the intended beneficiaries of the decisions made at the ILO.
