This report was prepared by the Ghana Social Sustainability and Inclusion (SSI) team to shed light on the prevalence and risks of child labor in Ghana and provide a step-by-step approach that can help project teams and project implementation units responsible for World Bank operations in the Ghana Country Management Unit (CMU) to manage the risk of child labor in operations. The report is one component of a toolkit that the SSI team is progressively building as part of a pilot initiative to improve child labor risk management in the CMU portfolio. The World Bank's multi-sectoral project portfolio offers many opportunities to address child labor. The approach adopted and the toolkit developed to guide the process are an example of the implementation of the Environmental and Social Standards (ESS) of the Environmental and Social Framework (ESF) and the requirements it sets out for borrowers in identifying and assessing environmental and social risks and impacts associated with World Bank- supported projects.
