VOICED: DRC Children quitting school to work in mines

The transcript discusses the issue of child labor in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where children work in mines to support their families financially. This work often leads to high dropout rates from school, as children have little time for study. An NGO is working to address this by educating parents on the importance of schooling and providing financial support to families to compensate for lost income. Despite these efforts, many children return to the mines during holidays.
