Breaking the Child Labor Cycle: From Informality to Protection
Bangladesh Labour Foundation (BLF) organized an awareness-focused discussion highlighting the harsh realities of child labour in Bangladesh, particularly within the informal economy. Speakers came together to discuss how millions of children are still at risk because of invisibility, a lack of regulations, and lax enforcement.
Breaking the wall of informality
The campaign focused on the fact that the majority of child labour is still concealed in unofficial industries, where kids are not subject to monitoring, accountability, or legal protection. The speakers emphasized that eradicating child labor and guaranteeing every child’s safety depend on tearing down this wall of informality.
Key Messages

In order to identify hazards early and prevent child labor through ethical corporate practices, supply chains must mandate human rights due diligence.
One of the most effective strategies to stop child labor is education, which allows kids to develop, learn, and create a future free from exploitation.
