TODAY it is time for every child to have a right to life, right to freedom, right to health, right to education, right to safety. right to dignity, right to equality, and right to peace. TODAY, beyond the darkness, I see the smiling faces of our children in the blinking stars. TODAY, in every wave of every ocean, I see my children are playing and dancing. TODAY, in every plant, in every tree and mountain, I see our children growing freely with dignity. Friends, I want you to see and feel this TODAY inside you.

I am sure you can - Now, listen to that child. Listen please. Today, I see thousands of Mahatma Gandhis, Nelson Mandelas and Martin Luther Kings calling on us. Let us democratise knowledge. Let us universalise justice. Together, let us globalise compassion! I call upon you in this room, and all across the world. I call for a march from exploitation to education.

(B5) 

To prevent child labour, I will first ensure that I do not use products made using child labour, such as fireworks. If I come across a child engaged in labour, I will try to convince their parents to send them to school. Additionally, I will inform my parents and encourage them to support these families by providing essentials like books, bags, or clothes if they agree to educate their child. Lastly, I will reach out to an NGO working in the field of education and request their assistance in helping the child.
