Child Labor & Education
Send me to school…not to work …
- The term Child Labor is used for employment of children below a certain age, which is considered illegal by law and custom. The stipulated age varies from country to country and government to government
- Child labor is a world phenomenon which is considered exploitative and inhuman by many international organizations
- According to the statistics given by International Labor Organization there are about 218 million children between the age of 5 and 17 working all over the world. The figure excludes domestic labor
- Around the world Hundreds and thousands of children are toiling as bonded labor (particularly in developing and under developing countries) in several labor intensive and unregulated industries. Many Governments have failed to bring total change in this aspect
We all together should condemn child labor and discourage where ever it is possible from our end, as individuals and as a group Lets join our hands together for better world and better India and believe we can make a difference.
Child’s EDUCATION is one concrete step, which is going to make a big difference.
