The fourth session of the Forum on Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law will be held on 24 and 25 November 2022. In accordance with Human Rights Council resolution 46/4, adopted on 23 March 2021 the theme of the fourth session of the Forum is “Strengthening democracies to build back better: challenges and opportunities”.

Although the benefits of democracy, effective rule of law and good governance are no longer in doubt, little is known about the positive effects of these on social and labour issues and about the most effective means of improving labour conditions around the world.

Against this backdrop, IOE wishes to provide the key takeaways from the IOE report prepared by the Texas University which explore what is known about the most effective means of improving labour conditions around the world.

This IOE Report, the concept note of the side-session as well as the draft agenda of the Forum will be sent in due course.
