International Labor Organization (ILO) is an institution that is devoted to promoting labor and human rights as well as social justice in order to ensure universal peace (“Mission and impact of the ILO,” 2020). It matters because ILO strategically focuses on four core principles, such as creating standards for one’s rights in the workplace, gender equality, social protection, and enhancing social dialogue through tripartism (“Mission and impact of the ILO,” 2020). For example, the UN’s one of the Sustainable Development Goals is the No Poverty objective, which was actively integrated in Ghana. The overall impact was manifested in the fact that the country became the first Sub-Saharan nation to reduce poverty by half (UNCG, 2017).
