  Dear Child Rights Group_TIG

Did you know that:
*One in seven children is a child labourer: that's nearly 14 per cent of the children in the age group 5-14 years.
*One in five children do not go to school; this is nearly 18 per cent of the children in the age group (primary school).
*Most of them (57 percent) were girls! Huge numbers of them work as child labourers.
*There are over 238 million young people living on less than one dollar a day.
*Child labour can be eliminated and replaced by universal education within 20 years at an estimated cost of US$760 billion. The benefits of eliminating child labour within the next two decades will amount to an estimated US$ 5.1 trillion for both developing and transitional economies, where most child labourers are found.

The children of the world need your help.

Please join the Global March Against Child Labour in the “Keep Your Promises” campaign to remind the governments on the promises and commitments they have made to protect children in hazardous child labour, out-of-school children, universalisation of education and gender parity, all within the larger framework of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). The year 2007 is the mid-term of these commitments for the MDGs to be achieved by 2015. Help us urge government leaders to keep their promises.

Visit the link below to sign the “Keep Your Promises” campaign’s petition to be presented to government leaders at the United Nations General Assembly. www.globalmarch.org/keepyourpromises

Together, we can make a difference for the present and future children of the world. Visit www.globalmarch.org to get involved

Then please forward this message to your friends and family and ask them to join you.

Thank you for your help.

The Global March Against Child Labour is an international network of civil society organisations working to eliminate child labour and lead them from exploitation to education.
