As well as Global March initiated action with the industry on the employment of child labour in Cocoa farms through the Global March’s Cocoa Campaign in 2003 , leading to the International Cocoa Initiative. 

Global March’s intervention “Not Made by Children” programme is aimed towards strengthening the efforts against child labour and trafficking for forced labour through improvement of inspection and monitoring processes in garment supply chains, providing comprehensive remediation of victims and promoting decent work for adults, through the five key objectives:

• Strengthening the “Multi-stakeholder Garment Steer Group on Child Labour”.
• Sensitisation and capacity enhancement of the Labour Inspectorate’s to inspect and monitor violations of child labour in the garment supply chains.
• Generate awareness of core labour standards across supply chains through outreach initiatives and dialogue with workers and sub-contractors.
