In 1999, the United Nations, through the International Labour Organization (ILO), adopted Convention No. 182 — calling on all nations to take urgent and immediate action to eliminate the most harmful and exploitative forms of child labour.
This includes slavery, trafficking, exploitation, hazardous work, and forced recruitment of children in armed conflict.�
✍🏾 Today, this convention is among the most widely ratified in the world — yet, millions of children remain unprotected.
In Africa alone, according to UNICEF, over 92 million children — 1 in every 5 — are still engaged in child labour.
�Many are out of school, exposed to danger, and stripped of their right to a safe, healthy childhood.
Despite progress, global trends have reversed in recent years — a stark reminder that words must become action.
With Sustainable Development Goal 8.7, the world pledged to end child labour in all its forms by 2025. But the deadline is here — and the urgency is real.
Now is the time to act boldly, implement fully, and protect every child’s right to be a child.
