Can we improve America’s social contract to better reflect current economic and social conditions? How can we measure progress and promote decent work in the United States?

The Âé¶¹¹û¶³´«Ã½ Foundation, in partnership with the International Labor Organization (ILO,) on July 11 convened a group of experts to explore these questions.  The event also marked the release of a new paper, Rethinking the American Social Contract: The International Labor Organization’s Decent Work Agenda in the United States by Lauren Damme.  The paper examines how the ±õ³¢°¿â€™s Decent Work Agenda can help us evaluate and renew the American social contract.
