Houngbo, is set to embark on a four-day official visit to Pakistan, beginning October 6th, with the aim of strengthening the ILO's longstanding partnership with the country and its tripartite constituents. During his stay, Houngbo will engage in meetings with key Pakistani officials, including Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, President Asif Ali Zardari, and Minister for Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Chaudhry Salik Hussain. The visit will also see Houngbo attending the 75th anniversary of the Employers’ Federation of Pakistan (EFP) in Karachi, as well as traveling to the Gadani ship recycling yards to witness ILO-supported initiatives promoting safer and more sustainable ship recycling practices. Additionally, Houngbo will meet with workers' representatives and visit Millat Tractors in Lahore, all in an effort to advance shared priorities for decent work and social justice within Pakistan.",
