"Estimates suggest that there are 215 million child labourers worldwide compelled to engage in activities that should be abolished, 152 million of whom are even under the age of 15, whereas 115 million are engaged in dangerous activities. While 70% of the world cocoa production is cultivated in West Africa and about 7.5 million people work in cocoa production in that region, children and young people must be protected from exploitation. With this vote, all stakeholders involved in growing and processing cocoa beans and their derivative products – namely, governments, global industry, cocoa producers, organised labour, non-governmental organisations and consumers – are urged to live up to their respective responsibilities in terms of combating all forms of forced child labour and trafficking, to share expertise, and to collaborate towards a sustainable cocoa supply chain free from child labour."@en1
