Child labor is significant because it effects children around the world. They have been harm and they have to work so hard to get pay. This problem is a transnational problem when there is child trading around the world so it is become a business. And since it became a business, it keeps going and will not stop if no one can solve. Therefore, the number of child laborer is still high and it is the problem that needs to be solved. Moreover, those children don’t get the opportunities to go to school so it effects literacy rate.

What Have Already Done for the Children

• In countries all over the world, countless laws and policies against the exploitation of children already exist. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is the most widely ratified human rights treaty in history.

• In addition to this, the vast majority of countries around the world have national laws regulating children's work and prohibiting exploitative and hazardous child labor.

The Good News• In 2006, the International Labor

Organization published a report called The End of Child Labor: Within Reach. There was one very special fact noted in this report: today, there are 28 million fewer child laborers than there were four years ago! This means that the work you are doing-we are all doing-to stop child labor is truly creating positive change. But there is still much more to be done.
