Social Dialogue in Development Cooperation Sida’s Approach and Support to Social Dialogue

Productive employment and decent work are keys to inclusive and sustainable economic development and poverty reduction. Support for social dialogue is one of several means to this end, and part of Sida’s broad and varied approach to employment. In recent years social dialogue has become increasingly recognised on the international agenda. Sida’s support suggests a role for social dialogue in development cooperation and offers examples of what this may imply in practice.
Social dialogue refers to collaboration between actors in
the labour market – typically employers, employees and
their organisations – as well as between them and the
government. It can be used as a means for agreement on
matters of common concern, but also for peaceful settlement of matters of contention and conflict
management.
It is defined by the ILO as follows:
Social Dialogue – The ILO Definition
Social dialogue is defined by the ILO to include all types of
negotiation, consultation or simply exchange of information between, or among, representatives of governments, employers and workers, on issues of common interest relating to economic and social policy
