Child labour is not just work it is a childhood stolen, a classroom left empty, and a future put at risk.
According to UNDP in Pakistan, 8.6 million children are still forced into labour due to poverty, limited access to education, and weak protection systems.
Many work in fields, homes, brick kilns, workshops, and informal sectors, often hidden from public view.
Every child deserves safety, dignity, education, and the freedom to dream.
Let us stand together to protect children from exploitation and give them the future they deserve.
Childhood belongs in schools, not in labour.
