PACE Consortium is a ground-breaking partnership of the private sector, academic, media development, and civil society organisations working together to combat the exploitation of children in the worst forms of child labour. Target 8.7 of the Sustainable Development Goals calls on the global community to end child labour in all its forms by 2025. The huge gains made towards ending child labour over the last 20 years risk being reversed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The International Labour Organization (ILO) estimates that up to 66 million children could fall into extreme poverty.
