Evidence to Action (EvA): Increasing the impact of research to mobilise efforts against forced labour in Argentina and Madagascar

The EvA project responds to the need to develop robust and replicable approaches to collecting and analysing data on forced labour, as the basis for building evidence-based interventions. 

Building on the ICLS Guidelines concerning the measurement of forced labour, the project:

• provides significant new information regarding the prevalence, characteristics, and causes of forced labour within the garment sectors of Argentina and Madagascar;
• builds the capacity of national research institutions, government and civil society organizations to undertake and use research to prevent, identify, and combat forced labour;
• provides globally relevant examples and assessment of tools for the investigation of forced labour; and
• catalyzes a broad group of stakeholders to act on the research findings, making the link from data to policy.
