Research : Give girls a chance: tackling child labour, a key to the future

— theme: Child Labour and Youth Employment

It is now ten years since the ILO adopted the Worst Forms of Child Labour Convention, 1999 (No. 182). The Convention, which became the most rapidly ratified of all ILO Conventions, helped generate an enormous change in attitudes towards child labour. An important element of the Convention was that attention should be given to the special situation of girls and to children at special risk.
