Summary
Before the Covid-19 pandemic, countries around the globe had made remarkable progress in reducing child labor. According to the International Labour Organization (ILO), the number of children in child labor decreased by approximately 94 million between 2000 and 2016, representing a drop of 38 percent. But as the pandemic caused massive school closures and unprecedented loss of jobs and income for millions of families, many children have entered the workforce to help their families survive, while others have been forced to work longer hours or enter more precarious and exploitative situations. Some have become their families’ primary breadwinners after losing a caregiver to Covid-19. Some despair of ever going back to school.

In a joint communiqué ahead of the G7 summit in June, representatives of over 200 civil society organisations from around the world call on the leaders of the G7 to agree a “bold and ambitious policy agenda that puts people and planet at the centre of the world’s recovery” from Covid-19.
Stephanie Draper, CEO of Bond, the UK network for organisations working in international development, said:
“With many countries starting to shape their recoveries from the global pandemic, the need for a truly bold and progressive policy agenda at this year’s G7 is more important than ever. The UK has the opportunity to lead an ambitious presidency – showing meaningful progress that goes beyond nice statements and feeds into progress at COP26 and G20.
