Summary

If children do not have voice, they cannot be heard. And, if we are to fully understand child labor, working children and youth should speak out on their situation. While in
recent years this observation (that it is necessary to include the perspective of working
children and youth as well as that of their families) is increasingly accepted, the
mechanisms for doing so are not well established. This paper by Per Miljetieg reviews
how organisations assisting working children and youth can include working children and
youth in efforts to reduce the adverse effects of child labor and child labor per se.
