Question for eRECICLAJE and other projects facing similar challenges Posted by: Franklin Swett, Project Director, Franklin's

October 12, 2005

Following up with the same topic on challenges, started by Fatima, I'd like to address the following question to the eRECICLAJE project, and also those projects which have faced or are facing the same challenges.

Felipe, the innovative way of creating employment generated by e-RECICLAJE seems to be a great tool to fight poverty and environmental concerns.

However, now that your organization is in the scaling up stage, new challenges rise. Among those, the protection of basic labor rights is key in the development of possible expansion strategies. Do you have an especial plan to ensure that child labor rights will be respected as well as basic labor rights of all workers engaged with your organizations?

Thanks, Franklin
