The Commemoration of the World Day against Child Labour: Say no to child labour in Timor-Leste

Timor-Leste as one of the youngest nations of the world has been actively engaged in combating child labour and fostering primary universal education not only in the capital city, Dili, but also in the rural areas. The Government of Timor-Leste is committed to focusing its attention on implementing activities and measures to eradicate practices that violate the rights of children, such as early marriages, child labour, and other types of exploitation, including domestic violence and sexual abuse.
