Child Labor Beneficiary Monitoring Toolkit: USDOL/ILAB intends to award up to $ 1 million for a cooperative agreement(s) to one or more qualifying organizations for a project to develop a Child Labor Beneficiary Monitoring Toolkit. The project will provide guidelines and resources for developing a direct beneficiary monitoring system (to track service provision and children’s education and labor status) for organizations implementing child labor elimination projects. The toolkit will include the following: (1) guidelines and tools on the types of data needed to effectively track service provision and children’s labor and education status, (2) guidelines on data sources and frequency of data collection, and (3) guidelines and tools for establishing a well-functioning data collection and reporting system, including proper data storage and tabulation and analysis capabilities. Finally, the toolkit will (4) identify good/innovative practices and lessons learned in beneficiary monitoring, and provide a menu of options for operationalization of such a system (available software options, database systems, etc.) and the necessary parameters (requirements) of such a system and (5) provide a prototype electronic-based system that grantees may utilize for beneficiary monitoring. ILAB’s OCFT will technically manage cooperative agreement(s) awarded under this SCA, and USDOL’s Employment and Training Administration will administer the cooperative agreement(s). The duration of the project(s) funded by this SCA is three (3) years. The project start date will be negotiated upon award of individual cooperative agreement(s) but will be no later than December 31, 2014.
