Report Give girls a chance: Tackling child labour, a key to the future In addition, IPEC has been providing policy advice and technical assistance to governments to ensure that educational policies pay special attention to children at risk of child labour. Vocational education and training have provided the skills needed for gainful employment, which in turn contributes to local and national development. Non-formal or transitional education has played an instrumental role in the rehabilitation of former child labourers. IPEC has demonstrated leadership and experience in using education to combat child labour in both formal and non-formal settings which has proved significant in the prevention of child labour and the rehabilitation of former child workers. The programme incorporates a wide range of categories of work against child labour, including research and statistics, technical co-operation, a monitoring and evaluation unit, advisory services and advocacy, and an education unit. IPEC's approach to the elimination of child labour has evolved over the past decade as a result of the experience it has gained and the changing needs of its partners for assistance. There is no simple, quick fix for child labour, nor a universal blueprint for action. The response to the problem must be as versatile and adaptable as child labour itself. Child labour is a stubborn problem that, even if overcome in certain places or sectors, will seek out opportunities to reappear in new and often unanticipated ways. Poverty and social exclusion, labour mobility, discrimination and lack of adequate social protection and educational opportunity all come into play in influencing child labour outcomes.Д®xperience shows that a combination of economic growth, respect for labour standards, universal education and social protection, together with a better understanding of the needs and rights of children, can bring about a significant reduction in child labour. This context is matched by the flexibility of the large, unprotected, potential child labour force. The way in which different causes, at different levels, interact with each other ultimately determines whether or not an individual child becomes a child labourer.Д¬hildren's participation in the labour force is endlessly varied and infinitely volatile, responding to changing market and social conditions. No single factor can fully explain its persistence and, in some cases, growth. There are many interlinked explanations for child labour.

International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour (IPEC)Д®ducation is a crucial component of any effective effort to eliminate child labour.
