The ILO and UNICEF released a new report yesterday. Still, 138 million children are in child labour. A decrease offers a small glimmer of hope. I thank all stakeholders for that but see no reason to celebrate. Because we have failed our children again. The international community promised to end all forms of child labour by 2025, this year. I ask, whose children are these 138 million? They are not mere numbers. They are my children! They are your children! Our children! We have enough resources and capacity to end child labour. So what stops us?
