Ethiopia faces up to child labor crisis - World Bulletin

"Eleven-year-old Andualem, one of Ethiopia’s estimated 5.5 million underage workers, does not know that Sunday is World Day Against Child Labor. Andualem works as welder at an auto-repair shop located in the heart of the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa. His workplace is also his home. “I worked as a carwash boy since I was seven. Then I managed to learn welding,” he tells Anadolu Agency. “Welding is hard work; it’s particularly harmful to the eyes. I live in the garage where I work because the $1-2 a day income is not enough to cover the cost for food and shelter.”"
