Partner cooperatives’ remediation planning and budgets:
• Cooperatives’ remediation plans are prepared at the end of each quarter to address all cases identified in that quarter (excluding emergency cases, see below). This enables accurate and adequate planning of remediation activities per quarter, including required resources and budgets. Each new plan is accompanied by a report on the implementation of the previous remediation plan, outlining the activities completed, expenses incurred, and evidence of distribution. • The costs of remediation activities are covered by Tony’s Open Chain. The partner cooperatives cover the costs they incur in the procurement and implementation of remediation interventions, such as the purchase and distribution of school kits. • The quarterly remediation planning and implementation will be reviewed and checked during the partner cooperative annual evaluation process conducted by Tony’s Open Chain. • Remediation budget is allocated per cooperative based on the cases in the previous season. • Remediation budget is calculated with a fixed price per child that is calculated in September each year. This takes into account ‘low-cost remediations’ (e.g. school kits) and ‘high-cost remediations’ (e.g. vocational training). • In emergencies requiring immediate intervention, a specific and timely process is followed, which prioritises the child’s immediate physical safety and the involvement of relevant authorities. Eligible remediation activities Access to education, income generating activities and labour support • If 1-2 children in a household are engaging in child labour, then the focus for remediation is on access to education (e.g. school kits/birth certificates) or vocational training. Access to private schooling is not eligible for remediation support.
