MAKE A DIFFERENCE. IF YOU SEE A CHILD
IN DISTRESS…. Dial the child helpline- 1098
Vimukti charitable Trust ® Pothnal organized an awareness rally in
collaboration with our Vimukti children club on world day against child
labour campaign in and around Pothnal government Schools on 13th June
2022. The day aim is to spread awareness about the illegal practice of
child labor that still prevails and sensitize privileged citizens to
protect and demand the rights of children and childhood. Today & every
day, join us to support all children across the world to keep chasing
their dreams through education, children and participants were holding
the placards and as they were marching in and around the villages
shouting the slogans to send back the children to school and stop child
labour. The Social protection systems that address poverty and provide
free education, healthcare, family assistance, and employment to
families, assure children the FREEDOM TO LEARN, PALY AND BE A CHILD.
The objective of this day is also to spread awareness to eradicate it
completely across the globe. Child labour still exists and children,
mostly from families, are forced to work in hazardous conditions despite
facing physical, mental and social exploitation from employers. Such
children are deprived of living their childhood while many also miss the
opportunity of attending schools. Vimukti staff took keen interest and
involved in this rally and motivated nearly 425 children with their
parents during the campaign.
