From WORK to SCHOOL Campaign
When?
From WORK to SCHOOL campaign will be a month-long campaign from October 2006 to focus on elimination of child labour, especially child domestic labour and child labour in service industry, and ensure free quality and compulsory primary education for all children.
Where?
From WORK to SCHOOL campaign will be a nationwide campaign to create awareness on the plight of child labourers, child bonded labourers, children trafficked for forced labour especially CHILD DOMESTIC LABOURERS and CHILDREN WORKING IN TEA-STALLS, DHABAS, ETC.
What?
The first step of the From WORK to SCHOOL campaign is to make “invisible” child domestic labour a visible and urgent issue. The main objective of the campaign is to create mass awareness and public action on child domestic labour with the aim to eliminate all forms of child labour and provide free quality and compulsory primary education to all children.
A comprehensive approach to eliminate child labour and replace it with universal education requires a focus on bringing to justice those responsible for this crime, and on carrying out effective measures to prevent it, while maintaining a humanitarian and compassionate approach in rendering assistance to its victims. |
