children’s right to childhood CHILDHOOD “At work I sometimes hurt my hands, which is really painful. Now that I can read and count, I can check my earnings are correct.” Shumon, age 13, works at an aluminium factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh. With support from UNICEF, he has gone to school to learn to read, write and do maths. See Shumon’s photo-story at unicef.org.uk/putitright
UNICEF as a global force Every child has the right to a safe childhood, protected from violence, abuse and exploitation. Yet there are 150 million child labourers worldwide, 1.2 million children trafficked each year and 250,000 child soldiers. This is wrong. Your support helps UNICEF put it right by: helping children leave the streets or dangerous work and go to school demobilising child soldiers and reintegrating them into the community reuniting trafficked children with their families providing care for abused and exploited children. SREYNET : AT THE CROSSROADS Sreynet, age 10, has lived all her life on the streets of Cambodia. She sleeps next to a busy crossroads with her mother and two-year-old stepsister. Sreynet has to beg or scavenge for food. Thanks to UNICEF support, Sreynet receives food, a shower and help to go to school.
