Towards a Better Tomorrow: Combating Child Labor in Africa
Sputnik Africa
The fight against child labor in Africa has made significant progress in recent years, with African governments contributing substantially to the global efforts to combat this issue. However, the problem remains widespread, with one-fifth of all African children involved in child labor, a proportion more than twice as high as in any other region.
Child labor poses a major challenge for the African continent, and we need to do more to stop it, comments Isabel Magaya, Manager for the Children and the Law Program at the African Child Policy Forum (ACPF).To find out what else our guest had to say, tune in to the Global South Pole podcast, brought to you by Sputnik Africa.In addition to the website, you can also catch our episodes on Telegram.► You can also listen to our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Deezer, Castbox, Pocket Casts, Afripods, Podcast Addict, Overcast, Google Podcasts.► Check out all the episodes of Global South Pole.

Towards a Better Tomorrow: Combating Child Labor in Africa
The fight against child labor in Africa has made remarkable progress in recent years, with African governments contributing significantly to the global efforts to combat this issue. However, the problem remains widespread, with one-fifth of all African children involved in child labor, a proportion more than twice the rate of any other region.
Child labor poses a major challenge for the African continent, and we need to do more to stop it, comments Isabel Magaya, Manager for the Children and the Law Program at the African Child Policy Forum (ACPF).
“In order for us to adequately address child labor on the continent, we need to adopt a balanced approach. Importantly, we need to engage communities in dialogue. We need to distinguish between harmful child labor and beneficial age-appropriate work for children,” she explains.
