Sigmund Freud (1856 to 1939) was the founding father of psychoanalysis, a method for treating mental illness and also a theory which explains human behavior.
Freud believed that events in our childhood have a great influence on our adult lives, shaping our personality. For example, anxiety originating from traumatic experiences in a person's past is hidden from consciousness, and may cause problems during adulthood (in the form of neuroses).
Thus, when we explain our behavior to ourselves or others (conscious mental activity), we rarely give a true account of our motivation. This is not because we are deliberately lying. While human beings are great deceivers of others; they are even more adept at self-deception.
Freud's life work was dominated by his attempts to find ways of penetrating this often subtle and elaborate camouflage that obscures the hidden structure and processes of personality.
A century of advancing social justice and promoting decent workIn 2019, the ILO – one of the oldest UN specialized agencies – will celebrate its 100th anniversary. The centenary will be an opportunity to celebrate the ILO’s achievements and reaffirm its position as the authoritative global organization for the world of work.
Charting the futureSince its creation, the ILO has a mandate to advance the cause of social justice as a means to achieve peace and prosperity. The centenary is an opportunity to reaffirm the relevance of the ILO’s social justice mandate and decent work agenda, and to chart the future of the Organization as it enters its second century.
The Centenary Initiatives and the Future of WorkIn preparation for the anniversary, seven Centenary Initiatives are being implemented. At the forefront of these is the Future of Work Initiative. The ILO has convened a high-level Global Commission to undertake an in-depth examination of the future of work and provide the analytical basis for the delivery of social justice in the 21st century. The launch and discussion of the report of the Global Commission will figure prominently among the centenary events.
Historical researchBuilding on the historical research and analysis carried out in the framework of the ILO’s century project, and drawing on the unique collections of the ILO archives, a major output for the ILO’s centenary will be an academic publication on the history of the ILO. A photographic history is also planned.
A global commemorationThroughout the centenary year, multiple events and initiatives will take place at the global, regional and national levels to celebrate the anniversary and to engage constituents and other audiences around the core values and vision of the Organization as it prepares its second century of work. A highlight will be the centenary International Labour Conference in June 2019, and a number of other key dates will be commemorated and announced throughout 2018.

The five flagship programmes play a leading role in strengthening the impact and efficiency of the ILO’s development cooperation (DC) portfolio, which ac- counts for well over half of the Organization’s resources in the field. Proposed by the Director-General and endorsed by the Governing Body in 2015, the flagship programmes consolidate and refine existing initiatives that target decent work deficits and related challenges in the world of work. This pub- lication introduces the flagship programmes and their individual mandates and highlights how they fit into a variety of development frameworks, from the ILO’s Strategic Policy Framework and the Programme and Budget to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The flagship programmes recognize the ILO’s DC portfolio as an important means of engagement with constituents. Their development fulfils targeted criteria expressed by constituents aiming to develop their capacities. They support the realization of multiple programme and budget outcomes and combine global leadership in evidence-based policy with effective field im- plementation. Beyond this, they offer the potential for scaling up, replica- tion in a variety of contexts and mobilization of resources in more efficient, effective and sustainable ways. By doing so they are able to produce lasting results aligned with the SDGs.
In the light of constantly evolving global challenges, the ILO’s DC portfolio needs to remain agile. Key trends, such as globalization, technology and cli- mate change, coupled with increasing inequality and continued conflict and displacement are shaping the future of work. The activities of the ILO flag- ship programmes serve as a strong reminder of the importance of the four pillars of decent work in facing these challenges. Employment creation, the fundamental principles and rights at work, access to social protection and the role of social dialogue all play an integral role in the flagship programmes.
The flagship programmes work in parallel with smaller projects in the ILO’s DC portfolio. Though on a smaller scale, these initiatives complement the flagship programmes’ mandates by piloting innovative approaches, developing new research streams and implementing tailor-made interventions. Synergies and collaboration among all projects and programmes will prove more cru- cial than ever as the ILO moves into its next 100 years of promoting and realizing decent work.
While garment factories are a valuable source of jobs and can help improve the livelihoods of workers and their families, poor working conditions, particularly in the informal econ- omy, remain a pressing issue. Mechanisms to enforce labour laws are often weak and workers may not have a good understanding of their rights, nor the skills to effectively realize them. Changes in these mechanisms will be made not only by fostering collective action but also by aligning corporate object- ives to sustainable social and economic de- velopment and enabling garment-producing countries to strengthen policy and tackle non-compliance. Alongside these changes, it will be increasingly important to equip en- terprises and workers with the capacity and skills needed for the future world of work.
Social protection is a human right and a crucial element of economic and social de- velopment. Future demands on social pro- tection systems are likely to increase in the light of disruptions of today’s economies and societies, higher levels of inequality and the changing role of work in people’s lives. Social protection floors are key for guaran- teeing a basic level of income security and effective access to essential health care for all, and thus for shaping the future of work. They contribute to promoting social justice, human dignity and decent work, preventing poverty and reducing inequality and vulner- ability, fostering resilience and promoting social inclusion. The Social Protection Floors flagship programme supports countries in designing and implementing social protec- tion systems, including floors, in a way that responds to current and future demands, and harnesses the opportunities provided by new technologies in the delivery of social protection benefits and services.
Some ILO development partners already support – directly and indirectly – activities of the flagship programmes.
A number of specific entry points are available to get involved. With the support
of its constituents, the ILO reaches out to development partners to expand alliances in the framework of its flagship programmes. This enables the ILO to achieve policy coherence as well as leverage resources to deliver development results at the country level.
A RANGE OF ENGAGEMENT MODALITIES IS AVAILABLE TO DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS:
Financing for development outcomes
Building on an alignment between thematic bilateral cooperation priorities and the ob- jectives of the ILO’s flagship programmes, development partners can join forces through multi-year financing arrangements, either globally or for specific regions and countries. This collaboration can be either project-based or through multi-partner arrangements. Designed as high impact vehicles, the ILO’s flagship programmes achieve results through large-scale activities and build capacity more efficiently through economies of scale.
Human resources support and capacity
Opportunities are available to development partners to place their staff members on se- condment with the flagship programmes. For example, young professionals from con- tributing partners can gain hands-on experience of working in the ILO’s development cooperation programme at headquarters and on field-based assignments through the Junior Professional Officer programme. These entry points are concrete ways to build policy and operational expertise as well as institutional networks between the ILO and its partners.
Public–Private Partnerships
The main entry point for the private sector to partner with the ILO flagship programmes is through Public–Private Partnerships. Socially responsible practices are conducive to gains in productivity, competitiveness, innovation and access to new markets. Through current agreements, the ILO has various experiences of collaborating with multinational enter- prises, SMEs, foundations and NGOs through knowledge-based as well as financial partner- ships. A number of private sector actors are already supporting the flagship programmes, including the collaboration between IPEC+ and Mars, and between OSH-GAP and Disney.
HUMAN RIGHTS OF WOMEN IN AFRICA
“ African countries and their governments have recognised that the vision for ‘The Africa We Want’ cannot be achieved until and unless women enjoy
their full rights as equal partners in development. Accordingly, several normative and legislative protocols have been adopted, including the Maputo Protocol,
the Solemn Declaration and Agenda 2063. While there has been some commendable progress with regards to adoption of legal and policy frameworks that promote women’s rights on the continent, much more needs to be done in terms of implementation and accountability, particularly where Economic, Social and Cultural
Rights of women are concerned. Women still bear a disproportionate burden of poverty. They continue
to be engaged in informal low-paying labour, unpaid care work, and face discriminatory land ownership
and inheritance rights. Violation of these and other rights expose women to high risk of sexually-induced violence, while limited access to resources and services such as education and health condemns them to a life of poverty and deprivation. “
Moving forward, we need to change the narrative for women in Africa, we need to hear their voices, and celebrate their successes! During the AU Year for Women 2015, one key message that came out from the women of Africa
is “ Retire the Hoe to the Museum ”, aptly presented in the moving stories of successful women farmers from Mozambique and Zimbabwe captured in a documentary series “ African Women Changing the Narrative ” proving that investing in mechanisation of agriculture will drive African economies and reduce time and labour for women farmers ”

Building Social Protection Floors for All (SPF)
International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour and Forced Labour (IPEC+)
Jobs for Peace and Resilience (JPR)
Occupational Safety and Health – Global Action for Prevention (OSH-GAP)

What is the link between the flagship programmes and the Future of Work?
The ILO’s Future of Work initiative will mark the centenary of the ILO with a strategic, action-oriented report preparing the way for the realization of decent work in a very different labour environment to the one in which the ILO was founded in 1919. The initiative addresses the world’s most immediate challenges in the world of work as well as some of the most systemic decent work deficits.
What is the link betweenthe flagship programmes and the Sustainable Development Goals?
The flagship programmes are an important pathway
to integrating the Decent Work Agenda into both
UN Development Assistance Frameworks (UNDAFs)
and national frameworks
of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. They are also able to incorporate capacity development more systematically.
