The ILO’s approach to advancing social justice and promoting decent work is built on the foundation of tripartism and social dialogue. It brings together governments, employers’ and workers’ organizations from its 187 Member States to address world of work challenges, set and monitor international labour standards, and works with development cooperation partners on projects and programmes to help realize the Decent Work Agenda.
