What should be done in order to solve the problem of child labor?
Promoting social accountability for communities, governments, and businesses. Equipping communities — faith leaders, parents, and community groups — to monitor vulnerable children to keep them out of hazardous work and help their families survive without their child's income.Child labour often forces children into dangerous environments and deprives them of their childhood. These children also lose access to basic education and this restricts them from doing well in life.
FYI: Global estimates from the International Labor Organization indicate that 160 million children between 5-17 years old were engaged in child labor in 2021, of which about 79 million were in hazardous labor.
