The World Uncovered: Child Slavery |
|
|
|
Around the world, children are bought and sold like bags of sugar. They break stones in quarries, clean and cook for their owners and work in plantations. Beaten, abused and worked to death, these children are denied any contact with their families. About 14 million children are enslaved today worldwide – more than at any time in history. Child Slavery follows presenter Rageh Omaar (pictured) on a remarkable journey across five continents as the children tell their stories.
