The responsibility for monitoring the international conventions included within the EU’s GSP+ and enhanced engagement arrangements primarily falls under the remit of international organisations such as the ILO and UN. This database provides detailed information on the 27 conventions covered under GSP+, and the 15 conventions prioritised by the EU’s enhanced engagement and includes inter alia information on the year of ratification, compliance with reporting obligations and links to the latest reports per beneficiary and convention.
The information in the database can be filtered by country, convention or issue area.
