CL in Coffee Value Chain Baseline Study Tor 03.05.2021.Docx Terms of Reference for Conducting a Baseline Study on Child Labour in the Coffee sector in Kasese and Bunyangabu Districts (Uganda) 1. Introduction Terre des Hommes Netherlands (TdH-NL) is a child rights organisation dedicated to stopping child exploitation in East Africa, and works with 6 categories of actors including children, families and communities, the private sector, government, law enforcement agencies and civil society organisations to prevent and respond to child exploitation. Child exploitation constitutes serious violations of the rights and welfare of the child. TdH-NL’s work in East Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Ethiopia) covers four thematic areas prevention of Sexual Exploitation of Children (SEC), Worst Forms of Child Labour (WFCL), Child Trafficking and unsafe-Migration (CTM), and Child Abuse (CA). In addition, TdH-NL emphasises four cross-cutting issues: child participation, gender mainstreaming, inclusion of children with disabilities and alternative care. TdH-NL has designed a theory of change that guides interactions with the six actors that we target and engage with in our work. We are also guided by our 5 Ps strategy which includes: ● Partnership - seeking collaboration and coordination with like-minded organisations and institutions. ● Promotion - advocating for laws, policies and practices that support/promote realisation of child rights. ● Prevention - engagements with families and communities, government, private sector actors to raise awareness on child exploitation and its impact on children, change practices towards children that predispose them to exploitation and support families to better provide for their children (creating a safe environment for children to thrive). ● Provision - for children that are already in exploitative situations, we take them out, provide rehabilitation services and reintegrate them back into society to develop and achieve their full potential. ● Prosecution - legal support to families and children that want to pursue justice when their rights have been violated. To inform the design of interventions to address child labour (CL) in Uganda, TdH-NL plans to undertake a baseline study of CL in the coffee value-chain in the Ugandan districts of Kasese and Bunyangabu. In keeping with TdH-NL’s position on CL, consultant(s) familiar with the context and committed to undertaking safe and ethical research are sought to undertake the baseline study in 2021 . 1 2. Context In Africa, agriculture accounts for 85% of all child labour and 61.4 million children in absolute terms1. In Uganda, it is estimated that 31% of children (over 2.4 million children) aged 6-13 years are in employment. The share of those 14 - 17 years old is estimated to be much higher, at 57%2. This highlights that Uganda has the youngest population employed, 48.1% below the age of 15 years, and reflects traditional beliefs that consider children as a source of income for the family wellbeing and survival. The ILO has classified the agricultural sector as one of the most hazardous working environments, especially for children. It is one of the three most dangerous sectors for children to work in at any age3 4. It is estimated that a total of 1.7 million households grow coffee in Uganda5. Coffee farming in Uganda is mostly in the highland areas of the country, Kasese and Bunyangabu Districts being some of the largest. 3. Rationale In Uganda, since 2011, working with and through partners, TdH-NL has implemented projects under the themes of commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC); Child Abuse (CA); Child Traficking and unsafe migration (CTM) and Child Labour (CL), mainly in Eastern and Karamoja regions of Uganda. This baseline study in Western Uganda should build evidence to be used by state and non-state actors in designing interventions to address CL, including WFCL. 4. Purpose and Objectives The overall purpose of the study is to assess the extent and effects of CL, including WFCL, along the coffee value chain in Kasese and Bunyangabu Districts of Uganda to inform interventions to address CL, including WFCL. Specifically, the objectives of the baseline study in Kasese and Bunyangabu Districts are: ● To describe the health, education and socio-economic status of children whose families grow coffee, with emphasis on health, education, living and working conditions and household income ● To describe the situation of CL among value chain actors in the coffee sector ● To assess the root causes and drivers of CL in the coffee value chain ● To describe current practice, policy or interventions implemented by state, commercial and non-governmental actors with reference to Uganda’s National Action Plan on Child Labour ● To recommend priority issues to be tackled by future interventions 1 2020 Child Labour in Africa https://www.ilo.org/ipec/Regionsandcountries/Africa/WCMS_618949/lang--en/index.htm 2 2020 Uganda: A report on Child Labour and Youth Employment http://www.ucw-project.org/attachment/Uganda_report_child_labor_youth_employment20141016_154929.pdf 3 FAO, 2015: Handbook for monitoring and evaluation of child labour in agriculture. Measuring the impacts and food security programmes on child labour in family-based agriculture 4 Ibid 5 2020 Uganda Coffee Development Authority: Fact sheet https://ugandacoffee.go.ug/fact-sheet 2 The study should utilize a range of methods to aid the understanding of CL in these two districts. 5. Target Audience Audiences for this baseline are key stakeholders in the agricultural (coffee) sector, including: ● Beneficiary community members of Kasese and Bunyabgabu Districts, ● Government Ministries like Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development (MoGLSD) and Ministry of Agriculture, ● Government parastatals like the Uganda Coffee Development Authority, ● Private sector actors6, ● Local government stakeholders/ actors, ● Other coffee value chain actors (producers, input suppliers, processors, wholesalers, retail markets), ● TdH and other civil society organisations, especially those with child protection interventions. 6. Methodology A suitable and detailed methodology that exhaustively addresses the objectives of the study will be provided by the consultant at the baseline´s inception, however consultants will be selected on the basis of proposed methodologies submitted in response to this ToR. Robust mixed methods with a participatory approach are preferred. The key responsibility for determining baseline study tools will be led by the consultant with support and review provided by TdH staff. Approval of methods will hinge on their compliance with TdH-NL’s Child Safeguarding standards and ethical approval by an external research body. Training on the Child Safeguarding Policy will be provided by TdH-NL. In addition, the study is expected to abide by the Ugandan MOH Covid 19 - SOPs. Data management should respect Ugandan data privacy policy and comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Data processing and analysis will be planned and executed by the consultant. All datasets, analysis scripts and all transcripts from the qualitative data collection will be submitted to TdH on completion of the assignment. The TdH-NL team will ensure dissemination of findings and recommendations to participating communities. 7. Scope of Work Roles and Responsibilities of the Baseline Study Lead (Consultant) The Study Lead will coordinate with TdH-NL to carry out the baseline study to the required standard. Accordingly, they will coordinate field-level data gathering, processing and writing up of the draft and final report. They are also responsible for the day-to-day management of baseline activities. 6 https://kilimonews.co.ke/general-news/list-of-qualified-coffee-buyers-and-exporters-in-uganda/ 3 Key responsibilities of the Study Lead include the following: ● Review of documents and preparation of an inception report with draft data collections tools for approval. ○ Prepare data collection tools for review and approval by TdH-NL ○ Prepare a risk assessment and mitigation plan for research activities, including a referral protocol for children and young people in difficult circumstances who are identified during data collection. This should be based on a local service mapping ○ Develop the baseline timeline/schedule ○ Develop a data collection protocol for the procedures and interactions with different stakeholders ○ Seek ethical approval for the study from a relevant Ugandan authority ● Conduct baseline study. ○ Lead training of field workers ○ Ensure enumerators adhere to ethical research and safeguarding principles ○ Collect, triangulate and summarise the primary and secondary data ○ Analyse data ○ Validate preliminary findings ● Prepare and submit a draft baseline report for review and feedback. ● Submit final baseline report in hard and electronic copies, and an electronic copy of a findings and recommendation presentation. ● Submit all datasets, transcripts and data analysis scripts. 8. Management and supervision TdH-NL will oversee the process and be responsible for accountability and guidance throughout all phases of execution, and approval of all deliverables. The evaluator(s) will work in close consultation with theTdH-NL Uganda Country Office and Regional PM&E Coordinator for the coordination of the baseline study with specific support in the following: ● Provide necessary documents for review ● Identify and make available the necessary logistics and staff required for the study activities ● Review baseline study report draft and provide feedback

Effect of Child Labor and Performance on Child Relationship with Head in Rural Areas of Niger State, Nigeria Abdulmumini Baba Alfa1,2*, Mohammed Zaini Abd Karim3 1Department of Economics, IBB University, Lapai, Nigeria, 2Othman Yeop Abdullah Graduate School of Business, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Kedah, Malaysia, 3Othman Yeop Abdullah Graduate School of Business, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Kedah, Malaysia. *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In assessing the impact of child labor hours and educational performance on child relationship with head, an analytical model was developed based on the theories of Basu and Van (1998), and Fan (2011). Empirical data were obtained from socio-economic survey (SES) 2014, with a sample size of 845 primary school pupils ranging from 10 to 14 years of age from 435 households in Suleja local government rural districts. The result from logit analysis shows that non-biological child engage in more hours of work than the biological child. Equally, children from the households that earn income below subsistence level work more hours, with negative impact on performance than those from households that earn income above subsistence. The use of extra-curricular activities social capital was therefore recommended to curb to reduce child participation in labor and enhance child school performance. Keywords: Labor, Performance, Foster, Income, Rural JEL Classifications: D10, J22, J23, J24, O15 1. INTRODUCTION According to Anadolu Agency (AA) (2013) earlier research, about 48 million engaged in child labor in Sub-Saharan African with 15 Child labor activities and low school performance by children million children from Nigeria topping the entire region.

  • Children, Childhood, and Forced Labour in Colonial Ghana, 1855-1914
    Slavery by a New Name: Children, Childhood, and Forced Labour in Colonial Ghana, 1855-1914 by Catherine Koonar A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Arts in History with Specialization in African Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014 Catherine Koonar Abstract The topic of child labour receives a great deal of attention from humanitarian and non- governmental organizations, but from a historical perspective, child labour has been under researched and under studied. Looking specifically at colonial Ghana, this study analyzes the effects of anti-slavery legislation and the presence of the Basel Mission Society on the lives of African children. It argues that as the institution of slavery went into decline in West Africa, the forced labour of children actually became more common. In its analysis of children and forced labour, this thesis will make clear that there is, in fact, a great deal of insight to be gained from including children in the narrative. In doing so, assumptions about key themes such as the racialization of labour, the gender division of labour, and the capacity of children to negotiate and shape the terms of their labour can be complicated. ii Acknowledgments This project, and my graduate studies more generally, would not have been possible without the support, guidance, and critiques of my supervisor, Dr. Audra Diptee. Audra has always believed in me, even when I did not believe in myself. She has taught me how to be a better writer, a better scholar, and a more confident person.

  • Current Trades of Child Labour In
    Annals of African Medicine Vol. 5, No. 2; 2006: 97 – 100 Child Labour in Zaria, Nigeria A. A. Aliyu Department of Community Medicine, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria Reprint requests to: Dr. A. A. Aliyu. Department of Community Medicine, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Background: In recent years, child labour has become a topical issue not only at Global level, but nationally because of the unhealthy circumstances the children are subjected to work. The Nigerian child is the direct victim of the low purchasing power of his/her parents. This study was conducted to determine the health, educational and socio-economic consequences of child labour in a Northern Nigerian city. Methods: The study involved the administration of questionnaires to all children aged 5-15 years engaged in child labour in Zaria city in order to obtain data on socio-demographic characteristics, socio- economic factors influencing child labour, impact on health status and school attendance and performance. Results: Two hundred children were interviewed, their ages ranged from 5 to 15 years. The majority of the children were in the age group 11-13 years (57.5%), mean age 11.4 years +/- 2.4. Sex distribution shows a male preponderance (82%); Hausas constituted 92%, and all belonged to Islamic faith (100%). Most of the children encountered the following health hazards, physical assault (beaten by their seniors) (61%), cuts from instruments (52.3%), falls (23.4%) and poor school performance (33.8%). Conclusion: As the problems of child labour are assuming a wider dimension, there is need for public awareness campaign on its consequences.

  • Strengthening Action to Accelerate the Eradication of Forced Labour
    Strengthening action to accelerate the eradication of forced labour, modern slavery, human trafficking and child labour in West and Northern Africa: Opportunities and Challenges Discussion paper for the West and North African sub-regional consultation on the Alliance 8.7 Prepared by Yaw Ofosu 1. Introduction The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), officially The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, constitute an ambitious set of international goals aimed at “[ending] all forms of poverty, [fighting] inequalities and [tackling] climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind.”1 Child labour, forced labour, human trafficking and contemporary forms of slavery are, undoubtedly, some of the most egregious manifestations of poverty and inequality. As we will see below, despite significant progress in lowering poverty levels in recent decades, notably under the Millennium Development Goals, reducing the number of children in child labour, and promoting laws and policy measures tackling forced labour, modern slavery and human trafficking, large numbers of men, women and children remain trapped in situations of abuse and exploitation. Many more also live in situations that make them vulnerable to such forms of abuse. Effective action to end these practices requires multi-dimensional. Goal 8 of the SDGs seeks to “promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all.” Its 10 substantive targets cover, inter alia: the achievement of rapid per capita economic
