Millions of children throughout Africa undertake many forms of farm
and domestic work. Some of this work is for wages, some is on their
family's own small plots and some is forced and/or harmful. This
book examines children's involvement in such work. It argues that
framing all children's engagement in economic activity as 'child
labour', with all the associated negative connotations, is
problematic. This is particularly the case in Africa where many
rural children must work to survive and where, the contributors
argue, much of the work undertaken is not harmful. The conceptual
and case-based chapters reframe the debate about children's work
and harm in rural Africa with the aim of shifting research, public
discourse and policy so that they better serve the interest of
rural children and their families.
