CSOs Capacity Building Workshop on Social Compliance
I. Introduction
Plan International Thailand is currently implementing the Stopping Exploitation through Accessible Services (SEAS of Change) project through the support of Plan International USA, Plan International Sweden, Plan International Finland, Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), Kesko Corporation, The Richard and Helen DeVos Foundation, and the Finnish Government’s Finnpartnership Programme.
SEAS of Change looks at critical entry points along the fishing supply chain to develop a multi-pronged approach to fortify it against exploitation and abuse. It envisions a fishing industry that is free from hazardous exploitative child labor and offers decent work opportunities for all, especially girls and young women among migrant populations.
Following a ‘net-to-napkin’ approach, interventions occur from source communities in Cambodia and destination communities in Thailand and engage retailers in consumer countries, like Sweden and Finland, intermediary buyers, suppliers and brokers to promote transparency and accountability down the supply chain. Project activities aim to improve outcomes in four areas, namely education, livelihoods, social protection and supply chain engagement.
Due to the wide scope of the project, the implementation of project activities involves Plan International Thailand, Plan International Cambodia, Plan International Finland and Plan International Sweden and Plan International Asia Regional Office.
II. Background
To drive public and private policy changes that fulfill the rights of migrant workers and their children, Plan International Thailand initiated the Change for Migrant Children and Youth (CMCY) coalition which is an open and democratic space for all stakeholder – civil society organizations (CSOs), government agencies, corporates, scholars and experts – to work together on concerned issues relate to migrants. One of the success of this coalition and SEAS of Change project is to engage private enterprises in fisheries supply chain into the project by promoting social compliance programme. Our experience proves that social compliance is an effective market-oriented measure to enhance private enterprise’s contribution to create decent work for all, particularly migrant workers, and eradicate child labour and forced labour. We intend to transfer this know-how to coalition members and other CSOs in Thailand as well as increase their capacity to deepen and broaden collaboration between CSOs and cooperates to promote social compliance in future.
