HOW IS IT CHANGING?
Answer: Child labour in Colombia is a big problem and people say that it continues increasing everyday more and more. Experts estimate that 2.5 million children are forced to work to help their families and only 60% of all the children in Colombia leave school with a "primary school diploma". There are children in both, rural and urban areas but even when the migration and dispaced people are a help for child labour to increase in the urban areas, the rural areas continue being the ones that increases faster and have the mayority of child labourers till now. On average results have tell that child laborers work approximately six to seven hours a day.
