Notice of Intent Project to Combat Child Labor: This is a Notice of Intent Only. The U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL), Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB), intends to award up to $3.5 million, through a competitive and merits-based process for one or more cooperative agreements to implement a project(s) that aims to strengthen policy and enforcement efforts to reduce child labor among vulnerable populations, including among Afro-descendant, indigenous and migrant populations, in Ecuador and Panama. In Ecuador, the project will also support policies that focus on the relation between child labor and disabilities. USDOL's Office of Child Labor, Forced Labor and Human Trafficking (OCFT) conducts and funds research, develops strategic partnerships, and funds an international technical cooperation program to eliminate worst forms of child labor, forced labor, and human trafficking internationally. Information on specific target groups, sectors, geographic regions and funding levels for the potential projects will be addressed in the SGA to be published prior to December 31, 2012.
