Third and last day at the ILC

Our last day was spent deep in lobbying - we spoke to government and worker representatives from many different countries as they were leaving or entering the plenary meetings. This is the most intense kind of work where children's champions had to get their messages across in just four minutes to delegates. It was hard work.

Overall the reaction was very positive to the young people - the delegates were supportive - many of them showed their support by filling in postcards with our recommendations or taking our information packs. They were often quite shocked when the champions told them how young they had been when they started working (aged 7, 9, 13).

In the evening Fiama spoke at a public rally - just in front of the UN - that was organised by domestic worker's groups from across the world. Fiama spoke beautifully - her speach was clear and strong and she made us proud. Thank you Fiama.

Also, thank you Evelyn, Komi, Sujatha and Foulera - everyone gave it their all for our last day at the ILC.
