Aamra Foundation organized its first ever campaign on World Day against Child Labor in Bangladesh on June 12, 2017.The campaign was aimed to create awareness among people to prevent child labor. Aamra Foundation is led by different buying house and garment industry professionals.

Participants wore T-shirts with the Aamra Foundation logo and having placards in hand with different slogans against child labor like No to Child Labor, Stop Child Labor.

There are a lot of children in Bangladesh working as industrial workers, transportation workers and tea shop workers. More than 95 per cent of child workers are from economic hardship zones where people are very poor. There are millions of children in the workforce in Bangladesh.

Aamra Foundation is working for underprivileged children to make sure that everyone gets education, accommodation, food, dress and healthy living. They also provide them scholarships which are sponsored from people.

Child laborers living in slums work an average of 64 hours each week, many in supply chains connected to the world’s most popular brands. Two-thirds of girls from slum areas who work full-time are employed in Bangladesh’s clothes manufacturing industry, which is one of the world’s largest, despite a poor safety record.

There are very significant levels of child labor in products that end up in retail outlets in the UK and elsewhere.
