Community-based Initiatives
• Monitoring committees set up based on training locals - visit workshops daily, record info, interview children, discuss withworkshop owners and parents
• OSH committee – training provided, training Manual. 4 model workshops developed

Next steps?
• Central problem of use of chemical-basedsolvents in glues etc remains – toluene etc
• Substitution with water-based glues• No amount of community-based action or
improved OSH communication canchange that
• Role of industry, governments, IGOs, social partners
