Solution And Awarness Some of the actions taken against
child labour include paying for children to go to school, or to at least put them in a less-risky occupation. Some governments are starting to be stricter with their labour laws, which prevents children under fifteen to work for more than four hours. The UN has also made an official "Child Labour Awareness Day" which is June 12. These solutions have made progress against child labour, but the progress has slowed somewhat due to lack of funding, and the force of corporations unwilling to let go of their child workers.
