17 Child Development Centers (CDI)

78 fruit and vegetable suppliers involved

+ 400 girls and boys attending CDIs

This initiative has been carried out by the Food Business Unit since 2006, and aims at engaging the supply chain in the elimination of child labor in production farms located in the provinces of Mendoza, San Juan and Rio Negro.

It has three lines of action:

• INTERVENTION: opening of CDIs for the children of fruit and vegetable harvesters during the harvest season.
• AWARENESS: training to stakeholders on issues related to the elimination of child labor.
• BUSINESS RELATIONS: execution of agreements against child labor to ensure joint commitment.
