Small hands – big profit Child labour – What unimagined suffering is hidden in our world of goods

Child labour is prohibited internationally. Nevertheless, millions of children worked under the most unworthy conditions for our products, e.g. for jewelry, carpets and natural stones. Child labour expert Benjamin Pütter has travelled through India more than 80 times, the country with the most child labourers. He reports about girls and boys, some of whom already have to work full-time at the age of five, denounces the machinations of unscrupulous company bosses and reveals why we also unknowingly buy products from child labour.
