For 20 years, the Maritime Labour Convention has helped advance decent living and working conditions for seafarers and fair competition in shipping worldwide. At the International Labour Conference, we asked delegates what impact it has had, and what challenges remain. #ILC2026

Red card to child labour✋ Despite significant progress since 2000, the challenge remains immense. 138 million children are still in child labour worldwide, including nearly 54 million in hazardous work. Let’s accelerate our action and join the global call to #EndChildLabour.

As the world tunes in to watch #football, let us make sure one message is seen and heard: child labour must stop. A red card is simple. Its meaning is clear: stop foul play. Show your red card to child labour. 🟥📲 Together, we can carry this message further. #EndChildLabour
