“Child labour deprives children of their childhood, their potential, and their dignity”
Child labour affects 138 million children worldwide, with 54 million working in hazardous conditions. According to the ILO, in Bangladesh, over 1.7 million children are engaged in labour, primarily in agriculture and informal sectors.
This issue persists despite international agreements like the UN Convention on the Rights of the Children. Immediate action is needed to eliminate this violation of basic human rights, ensuring every child can enjoy education and protection from exploitation.
