In the field of child labour prevention, stories are often misunderstood. They are sometimes treated as communication assets, as testimonials, or as complementary material around programmes, reports or campaigns. A way to “humanise” data. A way to create visibility around an issue. But the role of stories in this work is much deeper than that.
Efforts to eliminate child labour are unfolding in a rapidly evolving financing landscape. As public development assistance comes under increasing pressure, private-sector funding linked to human rights due diligence is playing a growing role in sustaining progress toward SDG 8.7. The critical question is no longer whether companies engage, but how these investments can reinforce national systems, strengthen sector governance and support long-term prevention.
Conflict is not only a humanitarian crisis — it is a child labour risk multiplier. Learn how fragility, displacement and weakened systems drive exploitation, and what coordinated responses are needed.
