Hands Up
A campaign to educate about child labour and support Hagar Cambodia, an organisation that works with victims of child labour.
One in six children is a victim of child labour
Currently the International Labour Organisation estimates that 215 million children worldwide are involved in some form of child labour.
Join hands with Hagar and help them make a difference
The Hands Up campaign gives primary school students an opportunity to learn about the issues relating to child labour while supporting an organisation that is working with children that are rescued from a variety of forms of child labour.
World Day Against Child Labour on 12 June promotes the awareness of child labour
By making this event a key focus for your students, you will be educating your students about child labour. In conjunction with running the curriculum in the classroom, the students are encouraged to show their support for victims of child labour by having a free dress day or sausage sizzle to raise money for Hagar Cambodia.
