Both South African trade unions and unions abroad agree that more needs to be done to help eliminate child labour. This as the second day of the 5th Global Conference on the Elimination of Child Labour is under way in Durban. EndChildLabour

Global Conference on the Elimination of Child Labour is under way at the Inkosi Albert Luthuli International Convention Centre in Durban.

Globally, majority of children involved in child labour are in the agricultural sector and many of them are between the ages of five to 11. “If we fail to address these root causes of child labour in a comprehensive manner, then we will sure not succeed in our fight. These obstacles are not insurmountable but so far, we have not shown the necessary will or pursued the comprehensive actions required to address them. We’re not here in Durban to blame each other, but we’re here rather to redouble our efforts to work better together. Collective action is key if we want to succeed.
