In Oscar Wilde's words, 'the best way to make children good is to make them good'. But over the years, Child Labour has undoubtedly become one of the serious problems faced across the globe. There are a number of children across the world who are working at restaurants, dhaabas, mechanic shops, etc. to earn a livelihood for themselves and their families. They also work as domestic help in people's houses while some of them are forced into some illicit activities such as drug smuggling, prostitution and trafficking. To spread awareness about the bad impact of Child Labour, every year 12 June is observed as the World Day Against Child Labour.

It was in the year 2002, when the International Labour Organisation (ILO), a body of the United Nations (UN), declared 12 June as the World Day Against Child Labour. The intentions behind observing this day are to spread awareness about the need for abolishing Child Labour.
