since 2000, from 246 million to 168 million children. More than
half of them, 85 million, are in hazardous.
 Asia and the Pacific still has the largest numbers (almost 78
million or 9.3% of child population), but Sub-SaharanAfrica
continues to be the region with the highest incidence of child
labour (59 million, over 21%).
 There are 13 million (8.8%) of children in child labour in Latin
America and the Caribbean and in the Middle East and North
Africa there are 9.2 million (8.4%).
 Agriculture remains by far the most important sector where child
labourers can be found (98 million, or 59%), but the problems are
