Greetings,

The world wide concern about Child labour and issues of child soldiers; it's impact on the fate of growing population of the Third world nations has risen to unprecedented levels in the last few years.This explosion of information on Child Abuse has made all of us much more aware of what is happening. But, the sheer magnitude of it can also be overwhelming. We often ask ourselves, in spite of all the media are we really certain about what we need to know and is there anything we as average citizens can do about it? Join us on June 19th till 23rd ,2008, as we learn the answers to those two important questions,

What Do We Know?
What Can We Do?

We aspire to:
1) To tackle this scourge of Child Labour and Soldier
2) Lobby the UK Government to apply sanctions to Countries that allow this menace.
3) Establish relationship between Groups, NGO's and Individuals that fight against this scourge
4) To empower bright youths of the third world by providing better life for them

The conference would be held at:

Station Road,
East Tisted,
