Music Against Child Labour: JMI Partners with the International Labour Organisation
JMI and the ILO want to use music as a tool for social change
- over 5 years ago
A new SCREAM music module will help raise awareness around child labour.
In 2019 JMI will partner with the International Labour Organisation (ILO) to create a SCREAM music module.
"The SCREAM programme aims to promote awareness among young people about children’s rights, with a focus on child labour, so that they in turn can speak out and mobilise their communities to act. Ultimately, SCREAM seeks to change social attitudes to promote a culture of respect for children’s rights and to strengthen the worldwide movement against child labour." - International Labour Organisation
This initiative will mark the 2019 World Day Against Child Labour: 12 June.
