Mid-Term Performance Evaluation of the Global Labor Program: Final Evaluation Report

The program was launched in 2013 with funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The GLP is designed to support the development of independent trade unions and promote collective bargaining, social dialogue, and labor rights. The program operates in several countries, including Cambodia, Georgia, Honduras, Liberia, South Africa, and Ukraine. In these countries, the GLP works with local trade unions, labor organizations, and community groups to promote labor rights and improve working conditions. The program focuses on building the capacity of trade unions, providing training and technical assistance, and supporting collective bargaining and social dialogue. The GLP has made significant progress in meeting its objectives, including the establishment of new trade unions and the representation of workers in collective bargaining agreements. According to the program's midterm evaluation report, more than 2,500 workers have been represented in collective bargaining agreements, and over 1,000 new trade union members have been recruited. The program has also made progress in promoting gender equality and women's empowerment in the labor movement. The GLP has established a number of gender indicators to track progress in this area, including the percentage of women in leadership positions and the number of women participating in collective bargaining agreements. The midterm evaluation report highlights several key findings and recommendations for the GLP. One of the key findings is that the program has been successful in building the capacity of trade unions and promoting collective bargaining and social dialogue. However, the report also notes that the program faces several challenges, including limited resources and capacity constraints.

The GLP has also conducted field reports in several countries, including Cambodia, Georgia, Honduras, Liberia, South Africa, and Ukraine. These reports provide detailed information on the program's activities and progress in each country and highlight the challenges and opportunities faced by the program in each location. Overall, the GLP has made significant progress in promoting labor rights and improving working conditions for workers in various countries. The program's midterm evaluation report highlights several key findings and recommendations for the GLP, and the field reports provide detailed information on the program's activities and progress in each country.
