Unicef shared this photo of two adolescents searching for gold at the Kekoro mining site in Mali. Gold sector is dependent on small-scale, labour-intensive, low-wage mining. In the largely unregulated work, many children labour alongside their parents to help support their families.
Children complain of back problems caused by the strenuous work and of difficulty seeing or breathing because of exposure to dust.
