Project Report
Introduction
Child labour and poverty represent two deeply

interconnected and pressing issues that continue to
persist in many parts of the world, particularly in
developing nations like India. Child labour refers to
the employment of children in work that is harmful,
exploitative, and deprives them of their childhood and
educational opportunities. Poverty, on the other hand,
encompasses a state of economic deprivation and
lack of basic necessities, often trapping individuals
and families in a cycle of vulnerability and limited
prospects. The link between child labour and poverty
is complex and mutually reinforcing – poverty can
force children into labour to contribute to family
income, while child labor can perpetuate poverty by
denying children the chance to receive an education
and break free from socio-economic constraints. This
symbiotic relationship demands urgent attention and
concerted efforts to address both child labour and
poverty in order to secure a brighter future for the
most vulnerable and ensure sustainable development
on a global scale.

Methodology
The survey was conducted through a series of questions posed

to respondents, who provided their opinions on various aspects
related to child labour and poverty. The survey comprised ten
questions, addressing the root causes of child labour, sectors
witnessing child labour, risks faced by child labours, the impact
of technological advancements, the role of education,
government support, poverty victims, personal experiences, and
wealth distribution.
Data Collection And Analysis
Cause of Child labour and Poverty In India
We found that most people who attended the survey believes

poverty and lack of education is the main reason for childlabour
in India.Poverty often compels families to send their children to
work in order to contribute to the family income. In
impoverished households, every pair of hands that can earn
becomes crucial for survival. Children, unfortunately, are more
vulnerable to exploitation due to their limited legal protections
and lower wage requirements.Insufficient access to quality
education deprives children of the opportunity to develop
essential skills and knowledge for better future prospects.
When education is inaccessible or of poor quality, families may
opt to engage their children in labour instead of school. This
perpetuates a cycle of limited education leading to limited
employment opportunities.
Problems faced by Children who engaged in
Childlabour
In the survey we found that violence is the main problem faced

by children who are engaged in childlabour. Children engaged
in child labour face a myriad of formidable challenges that
significantly compromise their physical, emotional, and
cognitive well-being. Often subjected to hazardous working
conditions, these children are vulnerable to physical injuries,
health risks, and even fatal accidents. Apart from the
immediate physical toll, child labour inflicts lasting emotional
and psychological distress, leaving children anxious, isolated,
and traumatised due to exploitative treatment.
Role of Government In Eradicating Childlabour and

Poverty in India
Most of the people who responded in the survey believes that

governments lack of support is a major reason of childlabour
and poverty in India . The role of the government in eradicating
child labour and poverty in India is paramount. It involves
enacting and enforcing stringent laws against child labour,
establishing comprehensive social welfare programs, and
ensuring universal access to quality education. By investing in
skill development initiatives for adults and creating
employment opportunities through rural development projects,
the government can address the root causes of poverty that
drive child labour. Public awareness campaigns and
collaborations with international organisations and NGOs can
further amplify efforts. Regular monitoring, evaluation, and
adaptive policy reforms are essential to track progress and
ensure sustainable solutions. Through its multifaceted
approach, the government can significantly contribute to
breaking the cycle of child labour and poverty, fostering a more
just and prosperous future for India's children and society as a
whole.
Impacts of Developments in Science and
Technology In Childlabour and Poverty
According to the survey most people believes that

Developments in Science and Technology can decrease the
Childlabour and Poverty in India.Developments in science and
technology have the potential to significantly impact child
labour and poverty. Technological advancements can lead to
the creation of new industries and job opportunities that are
less labour-intensive and more knowledge-based. This shift can
contribute to the reduction of child labour, as children would be
less likely to be engaged in physically demanding and
hazardous work. Moreover, improved access to information
through technology can enhance education, enabling children
to receive quality learning experiences remotely. This can break
the cycle of poverty by equipping them with skills that lead to
better employment prospects. Additionally, technology-driven
initiatives, such as mobile banking and digital payment
systems, can improve financial inclusion, making it easier for
families to access and manage their finances, thereby
mitigating economic vulnerabilities that contribute to child
labour.
CONCLUSION
The survey findings underscore the intricate relationship

between child labour and poverty in India. The consensus on
the pivotal role of education in addressing both issues is a key
takeaway. The prevalence of child labour in sectors like textiles
warrants targeted interventions, while the acknowledgment of
government's role and unequal wealth distribution underscores
the need for systemic changes. The positive impact of
technological advancements on reducing child labour is
promising, but concerted efforts are required for sustained
progress. This report calls for multi-faceted strategies that
prioritize education, advocate for government support, and
promote equitable wealth distribution to alleviate child labour
and poverty, fostering a brighter future for India's youth and
society as a whole.
