Filmed, produced, and edited by Jake Lyell: Paying jobs are a rarity in most parts of rural India. In S. Rajasthan children are often either enticed by wages or forced into the grueling labor of the cotton fields in the neighboring state to support their families. A child’s small and delicate hands are gentle on cotton plants and actually assist in their cross-pollination. Girls are more likely to be targets, as their education, compared to boys, is looked upon as expendable. ChildFund International’s anti-trafficking programs work both to rescue children who are victims of trafficking as well as to provide alternative incomes for families in communities where the phenomenon is most common.
