International Labour Office

Purpose

The International Trade and Labour stream (ITL) of the Labour Funding Program (LFP) provides financial support to fund capacity building projects in Canada's partner countries. ITL provides the mechanism for Canada to meet commitments emanating from participation in key international institutions and forums, and international agreements. With funding received through the ITL stream, organizations may prepare and publish reports on labour issues, promote social dialogue, oversee cooperative activities and intergovernmental consultations, and manage independent evaluations and dispute resolution related to the enforcement of labour laws.
