There is something deeply wrong about a child carrying the weight of survival before they have had the chance to enjoy the lightness of childhood. 🎈 The contrast is at the heart of this World Day Against Child Labour. Childhood should make room for learning, laughter, and discovery. Child labour replaces that space with burden, risk and lost opportunity. 💔 And when a child is working, there is always a deeper story behind it. Families facing pressure, limited opportunities and gaps in support often find themselves making difficult choices that affect children. That is why ending child labour means doing more than naming the problem. It means helping build a world where children can stay in school, families can live and work in dignity and childhood is protected for what it should be. 🌍 Across communities, meaningful progress is happening. With the right support, families are finding alternatives, and children are returning to school and safer environments.   That progress matters, and it is worth continuing.
