This course looks at the potential of MNEs and national enterprises to contribute to the protection of labour rights and the achievement of decent work for all. It introduces participants to the guidance set out in the MNE Declaration for enterprises, governments, employers' and workers' organizations. Through case studies, dialogues with MNEs and a company visit, participants will gain a better understanding of the roles and responsibilities of government and enterprises in implementing workers' rights, fostering job creation and skills development, and supporting development of SMEs through business linkages. The course strengthens the capacity to apply the principles of the MNE Declaration and align private actions more closely with public policy objectives, including in the light of the Sustainable Development Goals and the broader post-2015 Development Agenda.
