Research on Child Labor

Research on child labor examines the practices and policies related to employing children, often for low wages and in hazardous conditions. It highlights how economic factors, such as poverty and lack of access to education, drive families to send their children to work instead of school. Studies assess the impact of child labor on children's health, development, and future opportunities. Efforts are being made globally to combat child labor through legal frameworks, awareness campaigns, and initiatives aimed at improving education and economic conditions for families, ultimately striving to protect children's rights and ensure their well-being.
