Dear participants,


I hope you all had a good and enjoyable if not restful weekend. Today is our last day of discussions for this sub-module!


In this session, please share some ideas on roles that YOU can play in addressing child labour through your youth programmes or interactions.

Hi All,

Well, I will start by enlightening the youth on the causes and consequences of child labour and on how they could become advocates on Child labour issues in their homes and communities. Young people are good advocates because of their energy and creativity. Their channels of social interaction could be used for advocacy purposes on child labour, e.g. social meetings, online networking sites, drama groups in their communities etc.

Hi Shining Star. Thanks for the ideas - are these examples of networks that you are already actively engaged with? Hope we can have additional suggestions from others in the group. Are people already caught up in the Women's Day 'festivities'?

Hi Shining Star, Your contribution is great, but how can the youth imploy their channels of social interaction to advocate against child labour in an enterpise?

Hi Luckyluka,

Well the youth can be encouraged to use these channels to inform and enlighten others on the issues of child labour e.g. on the Online Networking Site like Facebook, the youth can start a discussion on facebook among their peers and other facebook users on the causes and consequences of child labour

Shining star, 

I like the aspect of advocacy you mentioned, but to whom and with who?

Thanks Ubandoma,

Advocacy will be to all members of the community :( Men, Women, Youth and Children)

Good day everybody, The roles i can play in addressing child labour through my Youth programmes include: 

       -Giving lectures on the definition,causes and effects of    child labour;
       -Arranging a field trip to sites where child labour is in practice for them to have indepth knowledge of child labour practise ;
       -Organise advocacy workshops and rallies to sensitise not only the youth ertrepreneurs, but the society in general; etc

I think our role in all this is to act as advocates of chsnge and this can all be achieveable by trying to make communities understand what child labour is and how it affects children and also speaking strongly about the dangers of child labour and the future implications.

Hi Lungowe,

The role i can play as a youth development officer and student of IPYET are; through prevention, withdrawal and reintegration and mitigation measures. These involve training and skills development, creating awareness on the menance, social mobilization at different levels,empowering the children to speak for their rights, print and distribute IEC materials on 'STOP THE ABUSE OF THE CHILD'

By taking it personal as our own problem and share through the networks we have created such as the one we have,and any other social networks.
