Two of the core functions of Child Labour Monitoring and Remediation Systems (CLMRS) are to identify children in and at-risk of child labour and other rights abuses and provide tailored support. This operational tool, developed by ICI, consists of a priorititisation matrix to: Help prioritise which children should receive support Identify what type of support to provide. The tool consists of simple flowcharts to guide decision-making and help plan prevention and remediation activities. It can be used to: Guide system set-up and implementation, by defining the frequency of monitoring, support

The Protective Community Index is a simple tool, developed by ICI, to rapidly assess access to services that help protect children in cocoa-growing communities. It captures factors related to children’s fundamental rights, such as quality education and safe water, as well as other community characteristics that are associated with lower levels of child labour. The tool consists of ten simple questions about service access and quality at community level.

ICI’s learning agenda is a set of questions to guide ICI's research and learning activities to fill identified knowledge gaps in relation to child labour and forced labour in the cocoa sector. The learning agenda is collectively defined and prioritised, based on input from ICI's members and partners. It sets out our vision for the collective learning process over the next strategic period (2021-2026) and will reviewed on an annual basis.

This report describes different approaches used to develop risk models to predict child labour in the context of cocoa-growing areas of West Africa.

This study provides in-depth analysis of data from Child Labour Monitoring and Remediation Systems (CLMRS) across cocoa-growing areas of West Africa. Building on a concept developed by the ILO as part of its International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour (IPEC), CLMRS are a means of targeting prevention, mitigation and remediation support to children involved in, or at-risk of, child labour, as well as to their families and communities.
