How Do We Do It?
We are 'Advocating' Children's Rights
We aim to create awareness on the issue of child labour and encourage all authorities and stakeholders to act upon it.
We Organize 'Round Table Meetings'
We Run Field Operations
We run field operations in seasonal agriculture areas where children have to live in disaster conditions, organizing activities that will contribute to their education.
We Deliver Employer Trainings
Through trainings, we encourage grove and field owners to adopt farming practices in decent social conditions and inform them about employers rights and responsibilities.
We Inform Families and Employers
We visit the families and employers of child labourers. We inform them about the rights violations child labour entails and about children’s development.
We Build Internal Capacity
We constantly improve our Child Protection Policy and Code of Conduct and harmonize our programs and principles with child protection perspectives. We support other institutions in increasing their child protection capacities.

“Child labour is defined as a child’s involvement in dangerous activities that may impede a child’s cognitive, social or educational development. In Turkey, the crucial age is defined as 15. Legally, children under 15 cannot be workers.”
