Abstract
Includes bibliographical references - Working children are the object of exploitation in terms of toiling for long hours for minimal pay. Their working conditions are severe, often not providing the stimulation for proper physical and mental development. There are no easy solutions to combat child labour. Many children have to work to go to school and to supplement the family income, stopping these children from work is stopping them to go to school. Labour inspectors in the Ministry of Labour should create awareness on the effects of child labour and the government should come up with adequate alternatives to help the children [to be] withdrawn from work - This research paper provides information related to the causes of child labour in agricultural sector in Namibia and to look at the laws and regulations regulating child labour how effective they are and if not, to come up with policy alternatives - Windhoek - Namibia - University of Namibia - Master of Public Policy and Administration (MPPA) of the University of Namibia and the Institute of Social Studies |
