Starting point
The Social Security Department of the ILO in Geneva Switzerland, in collaboration with the ILO’s offices around the world, has launched a global training activity on “Strengthening the Tripartite Governance of Social Security Systems”. The target audience is worker, employer and government members and parliamentarians of social security and social protection boards and commissions.
The Training
The primary focus of the training is to present and revise with key stakeholders, basic social security principles, standards, financing and governance issues – for non technicians – considered in the ILO’s Decent Work agenda.
The training activity also aims at updating participants on the current discussions, trends and developments on social security and social protection, in particular:
-
