Until recently, the outlook for finally ending child labour was promising, owing in part to progress in expanding education, targeted social protection and robust global growth.
But in the last four years, global progress has stalled. In fact, the absolute number of children engaged in child labour has increased for the first time in two decades—an estimated and staggering 160 million children in 2020 according to new global estimates released by ILO and UNICEF.
Now, the Covid-19 crisis is making a bad situation even worse. As school closures and strained finances may push an additional 8.9 million children into child labour over the next two years, Leading Minds Online asks the experts: How can we get progress back on track to reach the goal of eliminating child labour?
