Introduction Since its outbreak in 2020, Covid-19 has negatively impacted the national economies, employment, and societies across South Asia. Especially the crisis unveiled the weaknesses of the current labour market structure in South Asian countries, where the informal economy is prevalent in all sectors, and most workers and economic units were little or inadequately protected and put in vulnerable situations.  Recognizing the unprecedented challenges, ILO launched \"Building Resilience for the Future of Work and the Post COVID-19\" in 2021 with the funding support of the Government of Japan, which extended necessary support and protection for the informal workers and economic units in vulnerable situations, especially focusing on women, and promoted their formalization by collaborating with social partners across South Asia. While the project implemented various actions resulting in achieving the intended outcomes, it has also identified a need for continuous support for the informal workers and economic units. Moreover, the need for further enhancement of the capacity of the social partners and coordination mechanisms among the constituents in addressing decent work deficits and gender inequalities in the informal economy and promoting formalization were also recognized. In response, the Government of Japan expressed its plan to continue providing financial support and establish Phase II of the project for sustaining ongoing works in India, Nepal, and Pakistan, which have been identified as higher-priority countries requiring continuing support.      📚 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗮 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗡 𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯! 🌍🤝 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗡 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗨𝗡𝗛𝗖𝗥, 𝗪𝗙𝗣, 𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗙, 𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗦𝗦, 𝗨𝗡𝗙𝗣𝗔, 𝗜𝗢𝗠 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀! 🌐
