World Day Against Child Labor |
|
On the
occasion of the World Day against Child Labor NSHC has
organized a street action. T-shirts and leaflets with
information were given to citizens. This year's motto is ''Give
Girls a Chance''. Hundreds of millions of boys and girls
around the world are involved in child labor that is
mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and
harmful to them. It interferes with their schooling,
deprives them from their right to play and other children
rights. More than half of these children are exposed to the
most harmful forms of forced labor such as work in
conditions that are dangerous, slavery, trafficking, drug
distribution, begging, prostitution, etc. The most common
type of child labor in Serbia is begging. Roma children,
children from poor families, from rural areas and from
foster families are the most vulnerable ones. |
