Child Labor

Nearly 70% of child labor occurs in agriculture, fishing, hunting, and forestry. Children have been found harvesting:
• bananas in Ecuador
• cotton in Egypt and Benin
• cut flowers in Colombia
• oranges in Brazil
• cocoa in the Ivory Coast
• tea in Argentina and Bangladesh
• fruits and vegetables in the U.S.
Children in commercial agriculture can face long hours in extreme temperatures, health risks from pesticides, little or no pay, and inadequate food, water, and sanitation.

About 15 million children are estimated to be directly involved in manufacturing goods for export, including:
• Carpets from India, Pakistan, Egypt
• Clothing sewn in Bangladesh; footwear made in India and the Philippines
• Soccer balls sewn in Pakistan
• Glass and bricks made in India
• Fireworks made in China, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, India, and Peru
• Surgical instruments made in Pakistan
Child laborers suffer extremely high illness and injury rates in underground mines, opencast mines, and quarries. Children as young as 6 or 7 years old break up rocks, and wash, sieve, and carry ore. Nine-year-olds work underground setting explosives and carrying loads. Children work in a range of mining operations, including:
• Gold in Colombia
• Charcoal in Brazil and El Salvador
• Chrome in Zimbabwe
• Diamonds in Cote d’Ivoire
• Emeralds in Colombia
• Coal in Mongolia
Instead of just giving these poor children the money in their hands and they miss use it because of their ignorance we can give them the knowledge and education that will help them survive life.

Plans and ideas to create awarness for child labor.
