In this second issue of our Economy and Human Rights Series, Tharwa is proud to present the work of our citizen journalist Sanae Boutahar. Sanae, accompanied by a group of volunteers that she gathered together, embarked on an ambitious project to document and investigate the problem of child labor in Morocco. She interviewed children living on the streets of Rabat and Casablanca. She tried repeatedly to get interviews with governmental ministries, and succeeded in getting interviews with a number of NGOs working to address the problem of child labor and child homelessness in Morocco. In this issue, Sanae's research and her compelling interviews with actual children on the street have been translated into English.
