Child Labor and Agriculture

Child labor around the globe is a concerning topic. The video linked below from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations highlights the dark realities of child labor. You are encouraged to watch the video linked below and utilize the discussion points to engage with others around the globe.

To achieve Zero Hunger, we must have ZERO CHILD LABOUR

Discussion Points

  • What stuck with you from the video and why?
  • Does child labor look different in different parts of the world (specifically in agriculture)? What does it look like locally for yourself? 
  • As you discuss child labor with others someone makes the statement, "Maybe it is just part of their culture? We cannot disrespect their culture." How would you respond to this? Do you agree or disagree? How might you navigate this conversation/situation?
