126 million children and young people aged between five and seventeen work under unacceptable conditions throughout the world. Poverty forces many families to send their children out to work. Many children become the victims of slavery, child trafficking or prostitution. Kindernothilfe supports projects in which girls and boys can find protection from exploitation and abuse. In the German Forum on Child Labour, Kindernothilfe works together with other organisations to create awareness of the different aspects of this issue and campaigns for the implementation of children's rights. more
