Tegucigalpa, HONDURAS (ILO news) – As part of the CLEAR Supply Chains Project: “Ending Child Labour in Supply Chains,” the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the International Trade Centre (ITC) held a workshop in 2025 on Corporate Due Diligence to Prevent Child Labour in the Coffee Supply Chain. This event brought together export companies, cooperatives, and business organizations from the Honduran coffee sector to analyze risks, share experiences, and develop concrete proposals to strengthen responsible corporate policies in their operations.

Through in-person and virtual sessions, participants delved into fundamental concepts of due diligence, as well as the main international frameworks, current national legislation, and various practical tools aimed at preventing and addressing child labour in the supply chain. The methodology allowed organizations to reflect on the causes that perpetuate this problem, evaluate their current practices, and design actions that incorporate due diligence as an essential component of their business management.
