World Report on Child Labour
How can we reduce child labor in the unfavorable circumstances of a global economic slowdown? This new flagship report, the first in a series to be published annually by the ILO's International Program on the Elimination of Child Labor, brings together research on child labor and social protection, identifying policies that are designed to achieve multiple social goals.

First enacted in 2000, the TVPA has since been reauthorized by three administrations, and it includes a dir...
