World Anti Child Labour Day (ACLD) is observed every year on 12th June. The initiative began in 2002, started by the ILO (International Labour Organization), the UN body which regulates the world of work. The main aim is to stop child labour of kids under the age of 14. 

On ocassion of ACLD 2013, CRY Delhi Volunteers organized two events to show their concern for the cause of Child Labor. 

In the first event, CRY Delhi Volunteers facilitated Mehak Theatre Group to do a theatre performance on theme of Child Labour at Begumpaur Community, on 12th June 2013. The theatre performance was aimed at creating awareness among community dwellers on the issues of Child Labour and Right to Education.



In the second event, CRY Delhi Volunteers organized a flash mob on 16th June 2013 in Select Citywalk Mall, Delhi. The event was a big hit as it helped volunteers to convey their message on issues related to child labour to numerous patrons of the mall.
