International Labour Organization
The International Labour Organization (ILO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations dedicated to advancing social justice and promoting decent work by setting international labor standards. Established in 1919 as part of the Treaty of Versailles that ended World War I, the ILO brings together governments, employers, and workers of 187 member states to set labor standards, develop policies, and devise programs promoting decent work for all women and men. The primary mandate of the ILO is to improve labor conditions, encourage decent employment opportunities, enhance social protection, and strengthen dialogue on work-related issues. As delegates in the ILO, you will engage in dialogues, negotiations, and policy-making processes aimed at addressing the evolving challenges in the world of work, including the impact of globalization, the transition to sustainable economies, the digital transformation of work, and the promotion of workers' rights. You will work towards forging consensus among tripartite constituents to create policies that foster equitable, inclusive, and sustainable development, ensuring that social justice prevails in the global economy.
