Order ProNATs and CIR brochure on working children

In March 2008 the brochure published by ProNATs e.V. and the Christliche Initiative Romero e.V. was released: "'We are not the problem, but part of the solution!' - Working children between exploitation and self-determination". It can be ordered here for € 6,00 plus postage.

The 48-page brochure (in German) gives an insight into the lives and thinking of working children in different parts of the world. It informs about the different forms of child labour, the legal regulations and political strategies on child labour and the proposals and demands of the working children's movements. Special attention is paid to possible alternatives to the exploitation and discrimination of children and how they can obtain their rights. In addition to numerous quotes from working children, the brochure contains material suggestions and questions which can be used at events and in educational work.

From the cover text:

They do not want to accept having to work under catastrophic conditions. More than 30 years ago, children in Latin America began to organise themselves. Later, similar groups emerged in Africa and Asia. In the meantime there is a world movement of working children and youth. Its aim is not only to improve the living conditions of working children and youth and to achieve education for all. The girls and boys also want their concrete experiences to be valued.
