Description
Through this first Action in partnership with the Dirección General De Servicio Civil of Panama, SOCIEUX+ helped the Partner to reform the process of selection of the personnel of public administrations. Public experts from Spain first looked into the processes of recruitment and selection of the public administration staff, for then putting forward an alternative model focusing on knowledge tests. In the framework of the Action, a test of the new model was done through a pilot project, duly assessed at the end of the cooperation with SOCIEUX+. The latter ultimately provided technical ground and proposed specific models to contribute to the selection of civil servants with a knowledge-based, soft-skilled, meritocratic approach.
As an integral part of the Master in Primary Health Care Management and Social Health Protection, Mahidol University and the ILO deployed a series of three specialized virtual seminars on subjects related to health financing from the region and Europe. To that purpose, the Mahidol University requested SOCIEUX+ support to mobilize two European public experts for the preparation and delivery of a remote guest lecture to the students of the Master programme. The lecture, delivered from experts from Germany and France, referred to the design, implementation, and financing of health care systems, including challenges and reforms adopted, in their home countries.

The logic of intervention encompassed awareness considerations, thus information sharing and training sessions aimed to sensitize labour inspectors, by presenting and clarifying existing applicable legal regulations, and showcasing European practices for the protection of the rights of children and adolescents.
The Ministry of Labour in Ecuador is responsible for promoting social dialogue through the Labour Mediation Directorate, by attending hearings conducted by mediators as an effective means of resolving labour disputes and preventing workers and employers from going to court.
