Latin America and Caribbean United Against Child Labor

Thirty-one representatives from governments, business groups, and trade unions in Latin America and the Caribbean issued a joint statement to eradicate child labor. Commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Regional Initiative, "Latin America and the Caribbean Free of Child Labor," the declaration highlighted ten commitments to combat child labor through public policies and social dialogue. This collaboration reinforces regional efforts to protect young people, especially those vulnerable to exploitation, and reaffirms a shared commitment to creating child-labor-free societies across Latin America.
