Child slavery in the artisanal mining and quarrying sector 2011, para. 88
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- A multistakeholder approach at all levels is required to combat child slavery in the mining and quarrying sector. States, under the leadership of a high-ranking Government official, should establish a multistakeholder team, with Government officials from different ministries dealing with child slavery, representatives from civil society organizations (CSOs) and experts who can develop, coordinate, deliver and monitor well-resourced plans to eradicate child slavery in this sector. Such a multistakeholder approach should focus on the following: the enactment and enforcement of legislation prohibiting children working in the mining and quarrying sector; the establishment of policies and programmes to implement the law; compulsory primary education; poverty reduction programmes that include social protection programmes and alternative employment opportunities; and measures to address the overall welfare of the child.
