O knihe

Hard to reach, child domestic workers are often failed by institutions formal and informal alike. International statutes, such as the United Nation's Convention of the Rights of the Child and the International Labour Organisation Convention 138 on the ILO minimum age, have attempted to reach child domestic workers but social norms keep this form of child labour thriving. These are children and their wellbeing has barely been extensively discussed until now. This book provides a comprehensive child domestic worker wellbeing framework that maps major themes embedded in informal institutions, demonstrating their impact. Research into the influence of international and local actors is highlighted to identify possible interventions that can improve the wellbeing of child domestic workers. Data collected during the progression of the 2011 Egyptian Revolution, this revealed the reality of their limited social inclusion in national issues. Such exclusion indicates this marginalised group will remain excluded without effective targeted intervention. This book digs deeper into a hidden issue that should be brought to the fore in policy and practice.
