The Stop Child Labour Campaign is an international campaign which seeks to eliminate child labour through the provision of full-time education.
The campaign has two core objectives:
- To challenge and bring to an end, all forms of child labour and to challenge those who would argue for its retention.
- To support the global campaign for education which seeks to provide universal primary education for all.
