Child Labour

While the harms of child labour are undisputed and human rights discourse has for decades tried to find solutions, the complexity of the subject remains. It has not been enough to identify the effects of child labour on the lives these children. Rather, it has proven equally important to understand the causes of child labour, the enablers as well as the gaps in protections. This project seeks a multidisciplinary approach to child labour, its drivers and the barriers to protection of children by exploring the enabling social, cultural attitudes and traditions as well as economic and political drivers.
