As students of social sciences in SZABIST, our instructor Ms Rashida Valika recently gave us an opportunity to conduct fieldwork on child labour in our society. Working children have been a distinct social underclass that has stayed neglected by the world for a long time. These children pose a complex social challenge. In majority of cases, street children are first and foremost the victims of poverty and are then stricken by other factors closely associated with it. These children are at high risk for a myriad physical and psychological abuse as a result of both their circumstance of being homeless and life on the streets. Estimates indicate that millions of children are living on the streets at present and their number is rapidly rising.
