old and he's a waiter in this restaurant in benghazi because people of the central african republic. that we and his mother fled the war in bunbury in 2017 he works here for 9 hours a day every day for a salary of just $355.00 c.f.a. that's a little less than a year a day after my father was killed my mother is very ill. i go out to get money so we can buy medicine for my mother so we can treat her and so that we can buy food for us so. according to the look out in june found some front here there are more than 600000 children in distress all over the country following the conflicts says 2013 however like many of these children situation remains problematic they finally a country is poor there's no one to help this child we're teaching him how to earn money so he can take care of himself in future if we leave him stranded rebels

could come and persuade him to join their ranks to earn some money that's why we're helping him and money i don't find anything wrong in that. and if i make a lot of. metal brisket by and head of the local n.g.o.s making it an awareness raising and community communication campaign a priority market i want to get to moscow i understand you want to help him get some study material but he's too young and his future would be better if he gets to school i'm not here to make it because in this neighborhood many under aged children who cannot be looked after by their own families are taken advantage of by businesspeople. condemns child labeled your own there is a lack of awareness among recruiters do so used to the unknown or deadly in damages to the well being of these little boys of school age we make a commitment to follow this child on till we can remove him and get him to school because the central african republic has one of the highest rates of child labor in

the world the situation is precarious and is linked to 3 countries is the ability nevertheless child protection organizations are trying to address. forms of child abuse in the entire country. let's talk with more about this with sophie to conic she's the director of the international labor organizations office in abidjan that's a port city in ivory coast sophie africa has the highest number of child victims worldwide and i was quite shocked to learn earlier that non-credible 72000000 children in across africa are in employment why is the number so staggeringly high . indeed 72000000 children across africa and that is one child in 5 age 5 to 17 africa it is very high their reasons are many. this is link of course to poverty and. the story of the boy in central africa

republic perfectly illustrates the complexity of the factors that are. creating child labor poverty is the lack of access to education to create you creation in the case of central africa education is free and compulsory on paper but in practice many children out of school the lack of access to social protection again the story of the child in central africa shows that he's an orphan and his mother is sick. there's no health care there's no safety net and the only possibility for the child to start working the lack of warning is a. very well illustrated mentary lack of encroaching on course and on the law because the majority of. workers in africa are in the informant economy where this is very important. the majority of children in africa are also working in the

agricultural sector. more than 85 percent and this is paid family work for most. for the most so very difficult to enforce the nation. in ivory coast for example of. including the harvesting of cocoa and coffee what is so is so so so so harmless and benign what is about it. what is hazardous an agriculture in general. for a 1st work can be hazardous by nature or by the circumstances in which it is being done. i would say that this work in agriculture is due to the exposure to chemicals chemical pesticides and so to do used. and dangerous tools it is due to not ours explosions an enclosure in the sun. hydration and so on.

ivory coast but also across africa of the feeling that governments are doing enough to stop child labor. i would say in africa at the rate up ratification of the ilo conventions on china is very high the problem is of course in the education of these conventions a large number of governments have also where that there's an issue are taking measures to address it has elaborated national action plans to even a child labor. but of course it's a very complex problem it can only be addressed if you address issues of lack of access to education and poor social protection coverage. and deeply entrenched social norms so i would say that it's really in the optic ation that those measures that. it's becoming really challenging so the lot is

being done and i would like to mention also that the african union has adopted this comes next election. for the 1st time. thank you very much for this thank you. u.s. president of trump is threatening to send in the military to drive out and he raises borders says have declared a police free zone in the city of seattle america has been gripped by often violent unrest since the death of george floyd who died in police custody in minneapolis last ounce the action in seattle has so far remained peaceful the mayor says it would be unconstitutional and illegal for trump to intervene. that calling it the capitol hill autonomous zone in seattle streets remade into a protest camp. was there has been speeches
