Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: International human rights and labor conventions (such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child, International Labor Organization standards) have called for the severe limitation or outright ban of many forms of child labor. While many of the labor practices prohibited by these conventions are indeed harmful to working children, one unintended ripple effect of an outright ban has been at times to exacerbate the poverty and lack of opportunity experienced by many children. The result of banning child labor can thus actually lead to more harm to some children who these restrictions were designed to protect. The purpose of this paper will be to present the research findings emerging from a project funded by the Canadian government (CIDA) entitled Promoting and Protecting the Interests of Children who Work which explores the condition of working children in Egypt who are employed primarily in small businesses. This paper will present the various views articulated by children who work in Egypt, their parents, employers of children, child-rights advocacy groups, domestic and international development agencies, government agencies and officials with an interest in this topic. These perspectives will be contrasted against international human rights and labor standards and points of agreement and divergence will be identified. Recommendations concerning how empowering children through work might accomplish the underlying objectives of protective international child-rights standards will be presented.
