Rescue and educate "carpet kids" in South Asia

A quarter million children are put to work on carpet looms in India and Nepal. This project is devoted to replacing the tools in their hands with books. Beyond the immediate care and education of individual victims, GoodWeave also addresses the root causes by educating consumers, partnering with importers, and certifying rugs as child-labor-free -- taking away the profitability and invisibility of child labor.

Source-reported status: completed. Timeline labels use reported dates and do not verify current activity.
