Stop harming and exploiting children
Every child has the right to grow up in a safe and nurturing environment.
Every child has the right to grow up in a safe and nurturing environment. Yet children all over the world are being harmed every day. An estimated 250 million children between the ages of 5 and 14 are working worldwide. Still another one million children every year are pulled into the multi-billion dollar commercial sex trade.
Child work and exploitation are not only the results of poverty – they also perpetuate poverty. Without an education, many children find themselves without better opportunities later in life. Many of them in turn will look to their own children to help supplement the family’s income. Find out here how people are working to break this vicious circle.
