Reducing Incidence of Child Labor and Harmful Conditions of Work in Economic Strengthening Initiatives (RICHES)

Background

The RICHES program addresses the risk of child labor and unacceptable working conditions in women’s economic empowerment (WEE) initiatives. Through support from the U.S. Department of Labor, and as a subaward to the Grameen Foundation, ABA ROLI has co-developed and piloted a set of tools for WEE actors (e.g., microfinance institutions, CSOs, and other financial service providers) to integrate awareness of these risks into WEE initiatives.
