EFA JOINS GOVERNMENT IN ENDING CHILD LABOUR

The Eswatini Football Association (EFA) today joined the Ministry of Labour and Social Security in commemorating the World Day Against Child Labour, observed annually on 12 June.

This year’s commemoration was held under the football-themed campaign, #RedCardToChildLabour, a global initiative led by the International Labour Organization (ILO) aimed at advocating for the protection of children and the elimination of child labour. The event brought together government officials, football administrators, and various stakeholders committed to safeguarding the rights and well-being of children.

Speaking during the event, the Acting Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, Ms. Mpumie Dlamini, emphasized the importance of protecting children from exploitation and ensuring that they are able to enjoy their childhood, pursue education, and grow up in safe and supportive environments.

Acting Labour Commissioner Mr. Mduduzi Vilakati echoed these sentiments, noting that while cases of child labour remain a concern, the Ministry continues to work tirelessly with partners and stakeholders to curb the practice and strengthen child protection mechanisms across the country.

Representing the Eswatini Football Association, EFA Executive Committee Member Dr. Comfort Shongwe applauded the Ministry of Labour and Social Security for spearheading the initiative and reaffirmed football’s role as a powerful vehicle for social change.

Dr. Shongwe highlighted football’s unique ability to unite communities, educate young people, and amplify important social messages. He further expressed the EFA’s pride in partnering with the Ministry in a campaign that promotes the welfare, dignity, and rights of children.

The EFA remains committed to supporting initiatives that protect children and promote their holistic development. Through football, the Association will continue to advocate for environments where children can learn, play, and thrive free from exploitation and abuse.

The commemoration served as a reminder that ending child labour requires a collective effort from government, communities, organisations, and individuals. Together, stakeholders can help ensure that every child enjoys their rights and has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
