It further defines <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> as \u201c<em>work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>(ILO, 2017)<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a newly released report by the International Labor Organization (ILO) and UN children&#8217;s agency UNICEF, more than 160 million children are in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> worldwide (Unicef, 2022).\u00a0 Humanium supports the global call for urgent measures to address this sad fact and remains deeply concerned that millions more children will be soon pushed into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">work<\/a>, which can seriously jeopardize their physical and mental <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/health-2\/\">health<\/a> (Unicef, 2022). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child

rapidly, effectively, and continuously to eliminate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a>. Moreover, business enterprises must have due diligence processes in place to ensure that there is no child labor across the supply chains and, where it is found, to hold all their subsidiaries, contractors, and sub-contractors accountable in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Apart from that, governments must ensure that all actors involved in the use of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> are held accountable (OHCHR, 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More generally, the international community must adopt measures that enable the poorest to regain access to economic and social supply. This includes, above all, protection against violence and access to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/right-to-education\/\">education<\/a> that enables children not be exploited as day laborers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Humanium\u2019s efforts in combating child labor and trafficking<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Humanium is proudly committed to contributing to the work towards a world where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-trafficking\/\">human trafficking<\/a> are effectively fought and where children are no more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/exploitation\/\">exploited<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Humanium&#8217;s advocacy work to combat <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> has been going on for years and is multi-layered. In fact, Humanium has participated in several working groups where strategies to combat <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> are being developed, proposing solutions and alternatives to the current practice. As part of these working groups, on May 19, 2022, Humanium attended the Global Conference on the Elimination of Child Labor where 4 delegates of the children\u2019s advisory committees took the stand and said: \u201c<em>Listen to us. Understand us. Implement laws that respect our rights<\/em>\u201d (Children\u2019s Advisory Committees, V. Global Conference on the Elimination of Child Labour).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this event, the concept of \u201cbuilding back better\u201d after COVID-19 and empowering all stakeholders to reverse the rise of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> numbers was reiterated. This means that it is necessary to acknowledge the endemic difficulties and crises that pre-existed the pandemic, to consider their current evolution, and to strive to rebuild in a more conscious way a world in which children&#8217;s rights are assured.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Humanium also warmly welcomed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/humanium-submits-proposals-to-the-united-nations-to-end-the-trafficking-of-children-in-the-agricultural-sector\/\">call for inputs<\/a> issued by the Special Rapporteur on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-trafficking\/\">trafficking<\/a> of persons, especially women and children. His Report was presented at the 50th session of the Human Rights Council in June 2022 in order to combat the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/exploitation\/\">exploitation<\/a> of children in the agricultural sector. Indeed, about 59 % of all children aged 5\u201317 who are victims of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-trafficking\/\">trafficking<\/a>, work in the agricultural sector, and are particularly prone to unsafe conditions and hazards threatening their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/health-2\/\">health<\/a> and their physical and mental development (ILO, 2017).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In January 2022, Humanium submitted proposals to reinforce the delivery of basic services such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/right-to-education\/\">education<\/a>, social protection, employment, labor safeguards, access to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/health-2\/\">health<\/a> and access to justice. Humanium also took it a step further by including the correlation between the increased numbers in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/focus-on\/environment\/climate-emergency\/\">climate change<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, human <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-trafficking\/\">trafficking<\/a> is an unintended but direct consequence of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/focus-on\/environment\/climate-emergency\/\">climate change<\/a> (Center for Biological Diversity, 2018). It has been reported that the impacts of both slow-onset environmental degradation and sudden-onset disasters contribute to mobility, and, in 2020 alone, there were an estimated 9.8 million <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/focus-on\/environment\/child-climate-refugees\/\">climate-related displaced children<\/a> totally exposed to the risk of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/exploitation\/\">exploitation<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> (Unicef, 2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Humanium&nbsp;as an organization is also actively working on field&nbsp;projects&nbsp;aimed at eliminating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a>. In partnership with Hand in Hand India, Humanium is set to end <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> through education, by offering the former child laborers in the&nbsp;Residential Special Training Center&nbsp;in Madhya Pradesh,&nbsp;India, tailored educational, physical, mental and emotional support, and ultimately reintegrating them into public schools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Humanium is proud to continue its work in the future towards achieving a world where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/child-labour\/\">child labor<\/a> is effectively eradicated and where children\u2019s and families\u2019 vulnerabilities are protected and never again <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/exploitation\/\">exploited<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n.png 940w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-830x696.png 830w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-230x193.png 230w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-350x293.png 350w, https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/280549150_5316643761732589_3730063192201363656_n-480x402.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you too would like to contribute to the fulfillment of&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/fundamental-rights\/\"><strong>children\u2019s rights<\/strong><\/a><strong>&nbsp;around the world, consider making a&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/donation\/\"><strong>donation<\/strong><\/a><strong>, becoming a Humanium&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>member<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;or joining the Humanium community by becoming a&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanium.org\/en\/participate\/volunteer\/\"><strong>volunteer<\/strong><\/a><strong>.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Written by Federica Versea<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bibliography:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">ILO.
