A World for Children

Growing Up Without Child Labour

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Child labor is a man-made issue, not a natural phenomenon. A common misconception suggests that solving poverty will eliminate child labor; however, poverty is a consequence of child labor, not its cause. To combat poverty effectively, the fight against child labor must take precedence. Children have the potential to contribute to their country's future, but only if they are given the opportunity to attend school now. In his work, the author and photographer explores the harsh realities of child labor across nine countries on three continents. He reveals the misconceptions that justify child labor and captures the injustices faced by these children through powerful photography. The narrative also offers actionable solutions, encouraging readers to engage in the fight against child labor. Children deserve the chance to learn, play, and reach their full potential. It is the responsibility of adults to create a world that enables this. The work is aimed at a diverse audience, including aid organization employees, politicians, students, and anyone concerned with the issue. With over 400 compelling images and critical commentary, the message is clear: we must stop child labor now.
