Right to work and the implementation of the SDGs: CRIN's submission for the OHCHR report

Submitted by jthomas on

In this submission we discuss how imposing a blanket ban on all child work without addressing the economic conditions which push children to work in the first place is not the best way to advance children’s interests. The submission also looks at ways of applying a rights based approach to child work in the context of the sustainable development goals, particularly Goal 8.
