Zero Hunger is not possible without Zero #ChildLabour. 🌍🚫
When children miss school to work, 🔄cycles of hunger and #poverty persist across generations.

💡 Fact: Not all #agriculture work is #childlabour.
Safe, age-appropriate chores can help children learn valuable skills!
But work that threatens their health, safety, or education must stop. 🙅♂️📚
Every child deserves a safe future.
