Under this contract, ICF will continue to provide research and publication support for ILAB's production of congressional and executive order reports on child labor, forced labor and human trafficking. The impact of these reports can be far-reaching: Government decision-makers may consult ILAB's reports when developing policies and when engaging in trade negotiations; foreign governments may review and respond to the information; and members of the general public may access the information to learn about child labor, forced labor and human trafficking, as well as the goods associated with them.
"ICF understands the importance of ensuring that the information in these reports is based on the most current, relevant, probative and credible information available—in a manner that is both accessible and understandable by the global public," said
Over the past 15 years, ICF has contributed to ILAB's work to eradicate child labor, forced labor and human trafficking, and inform policymakers and the public about these abuses and foreign governments' efforts to combat them.
With backgrounds ranging from public policy, human services, social sciences, technology and finance to urban planning, public health and environmental science, ICF drives breakthrough work on the world's most critical social issues. Read more about ICF's social programs.
