Zero Hunger is not possible without Zero #ChildLabour. 🌍🚫 When children miss school to work, 🔄cycles of hunger and #poverty persist across generations. Investing in rural families = investing in our children's futures. Let's protect their tomorrow! #EndChildLabour

💡 Fact: Not all #agriculture work is #childlabour. Safe, age-appropriate chores can help children learn valuable skills! But work that threatens their health, safety, or education must stop. 🙅‍♂️📚 Every child deserves a safe future. #EndChildLabour
