This year theme is “Universal Social Protection to End Child Labour”
The 2022 theme of the world day calls for increased investment in social protection systems and schemes to establish solid social protection floors and protect children from child labour.
While significant progress has been made in reducing child labour over the last two decades, progress has slowed over time, and it has even stalled during the period 2016-2020. Today, 160 million children still engaged in child labour – some as young as 5.
It is essential to fight poverty and vulnerability, and eradicate and prevent child labour.
A big THANK YOU to Central Square Mall for providing us all necessary technical help!!!!
