ILO: Engagement of a consulting firm to advance the General Union for Chambers of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture in Libya (GLUCC)’s 2026–2028 strategic plan: institutional governance, HR modernization and institutional capacity development

The General Union of Chambers of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture in Libya (GLUCC) was established in 1976 as a private-sector institution supporting trade, industry and agriculture and representing the interests of affiliated chambers and businesses within the national policy framework. The GLUCC Strategic Plan 2026-2028, developed with ACTEMP/ILO support, identifies strengthening Corporate Governance and institutional Capacity Building as priority one/ first strategic direction.

Priority one aims to address weaknesses related to organizational structure, policies, procedures and human and institutional capacity building within GLUCC, where governance ensures enhanced transparency, accountability and efficiency in performance, while capacity building ensures that GLUCC has qualified and trained human resources capable of executing tasks and achieving objectives.

Specifically, the first strategic direction prioritizes three objectives:

 Developing a clear organizational structure and functions with specific powers and responsibilities;

 Developing and implementing standard working policies and procedures and an approved documentary cycle;

 Building and developing the institutional and human capacity of GLUCC and chamber staff.

These ToRs are grounded in the ILO ACTEMP Effective Employers' and Business Membership Organizations: Good Governance guides and the ILO Human Resource Management manual for EBMOs, specifically Tool 1 on HRM fundamentals and Tool 2 on staffing and recruitment. Governance is treated as the system of structures, rules, values and processes through which GLUCC assures accountability, transparency, responsiveness, participation and compliance. Internal capacity is treated as the practical alignment of people, roles, competencies, procedures and management controls with GLUCC's strategic mandate.
