Abstract
The evidence from the various cases illustrates encouraging trends in terms of the worst forms of child labour, in line with the optimistic news of the ILO report The End of Child Labour Within Reach (ILO 2006a). Bolivia, Peru and Guatemala have ratified ILO Conventions 138 and 182 and have incorporated the recommendations of these Conventions in their national child labour laws. Peru and Guatemala have, in addition, compiled national lists of specific worst forms of child labour. All three countries have established national commissions for the progressive elimination of child labour.
