forms, it robs children of their health, their education and even their lives.
As long as poverty pushes some families to send their children to work, the
next generation is condemned to the same fate. The ILO now has over a
decade of experience of working with its constituents to understand the
dynamics inside these households, raise awareness and show what can be
done. Its efforts go beyond trying to stop children from working. The ILO
promotes development by advocating adequate educational alternatives for
girls and boys, access to income and security for their parents and stronger
laws and enforcement mechanisms. In other words, eradicating child labour
takes an integrated, gender-sensitive, family-centred strategy: children out
of work and into school – parents into work and out of unemployment. This
comprehensive approach is at the heart of the time-bound programme to
eliminate child labour by a certain date. El Salvador, Nepal and the United
Republic of Tanzania have launched such initiatives, and around ten more
countries are preparing to make the same commitment to break the cycle of
poverty and give our children hope.
