This guide has been prepared for use in facilitating and promoting growth in priority sectors already agreed in Decent Work Country Programmes that are based on national priorities owned and led by the constituents (Government and its social partners Employers/Business and Workers). Decent Work Country Programmes are part of national development frameworks focusing on national priorities; they are not ILO programmes. The Guide can thus be tailored to specific situations and used by both public and private sector entrepreneurs to facilitate and promote broad based growth in selected sectors.
