Child labour risk data in Uganda

New data about child labour risk has been published on the Agro-informatics Platform. The data focuses on Uganda and includes twelve datasets.

DIGICHILD is a GIS-based child labour risk estimation index in agrifood systems. It combines key variables that represent risk indicators of child labour in agriculture.

The index maps agriculture and crop-growing communities subject to child labour risk, combining their exposure to selected, standardized and weighted child labour risk indicators (e.g. poverty, food insecurity, school distance, climate vulnerability and others). The index includes crop masking, mapping child labour risk estimation in specific crop-growing areas and agricultural sub-sectors (coffee, livestock and others).
