All children have the right to an education, a
right to be free and live their lives before
adulthood. They shouldnt have to work to earn a
living, sadly thousands of young children around
the world dont have this freedom and thats why
we want to make people aware of the seriousness
of child labour.

HAS 2 STOP!
Child labour is a huge problem throughout the
world, especially in developing countries. Africa
and Asia together account for over 90 percent of
total child employment. Child labour is
employment of children under the age of 18.
Working children are the objects of extreme
exploitation in terms of toiling for long hours
for minimal pay. Their work conditions are
especially severe, often not providing the
stimulation for proper physical and mental
development. Many of these children endure lives
of pure deprivation.
