We at Kalin Setterberg have gotten to know Kailash Satyarthi and are truly inspired by his work. Kailash is working against exploitative child labour in general and child slavery in particular. He is working both in his home country India and internationally. Internationally, he works with UN and other organisations, in India with BBA (Save The Childhood). He founded BBA in 1980 and has since freed more than 80 000 Indian children from slavery. During these rescue raids three of his co-workers have been killed and he himself has been subject to severe physical violence three times. Yet he carries on tirelessly with his work. Among other things, he initiated and enacted an amendment in the Indian constitution that guarantees the right to free education for children under the age of 14.
