Abstract

Worldwide, the figures on child labour are worrying. According to estimates from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Labour Organization (ILO), there are about 215 mn ‘child workers’, many of whom work full-time, and close to 170 mn are ‘trapped’ in activities considered as child labour. Typically, these children are denied education, proper nutrition, recreation and other basic rights.
