Kailash Satyarthi Biography

Nobel Laureate Kailash Satyarthi has been a prominent figure in the global fight against child slavery for over four decades. As the founder of the grassroots nonprofit "Bachpan Bachao Andolan" (Save the Childhood Movement), he has rescued over 87,000 children from various forms of exploitation, including child labor and trafficking.

Satyarthi's work extends beyond rescue operations. He has also been influential in advocacy and policy change. He led the Global March Against Child Labor in 1998, a significant event that spanned 80,000 kilometers across 103 countries, culminating in the adoption of the International Labour Organization's Convention No. 182, which targets the worst forms of child labor. His efforts have also led to the creation of "Rugmark" (now known as "Good Weave"), a pioneering social labeling system that certifies child-labor-free carpets.

In addition to his earlier achievements, in 2016, Satyarthi launched the "Laureates and Leaders for Children" initiative, which unites Nobel Laureates and leaders worldwide to combat violence against children. That same year, he initiated the "100 Million for 100 Million Campaign," aiming to mobilize 100 million youth to improve the lives of 100 million children deprived of their rights and freedoms. Furthermore, he has been actively advocating for a new legally binding UN convention against online child sexual abuse and pornography. Satyarthi's continued dedication to children's rights and education was recognized when he was named to Fortune's list of "The World's 50 Greatest Leaders."

Kailash Satyarthi Speaking Topics

  • Corporations and Child Labor: A Worldwide Issue

    When a spotlight is shined on the supply chains of the world’s largest companies, they are forced to look deep into their sources and make change. A recent rescue by Kailash Satyarthi—and its ensuing exposé—brought to light the inequities involved in Assam’s tea industry. The child labor used in India is rampant, which is why Satyarthi remains vigilant in helping the children involved. In this talk, he speaks about how the demand for cheap labor fuels poverty and child labor, as well as what can be done to give the world’s children a hopeful future.

  • Free and Compulsory Education is a Human Right

    Every child should be given equal ground and a fair start to life, and one of Kailash Satyarthi’s main missions is to urge governments and organizations across the globe towards that goal. Low child education rates in certain parts of the world often reveal corresponding poverty conditions. For example, a family with disabled parents and able children in an impoverished area has only one means to earn an income—by taking the children out of school to support the family. However, Kailash Satyarthi believes that child labor perpetuates poverty, because children without an education never develop the skills to better themselves or their standards of living. So what can be done? He will discuss what he has personally seen, and what really works to construct real change. Audiences will leave inspired to take action in this riveting presentation.

  • The Global Movement Against Child Labor

    The fact that modern-day slavery exists in this century is a shock to most people. According to Unicef, “nearly one in four children are engaged in work that is potentially harmful to their health” in the world’s poorest countries. The International Labour Organization states that there are an estimated 168 million children (in 2014, down from 171 million in 2000). The good news is that the numbers are dropping as more people find out and become involved and demand greater transparency in business practices and supply chains. In this eye-opening presentation, Kailash Satyarthi lectures on what government, corporations, the United Nations and the public can do to ensure a healthy, safe environment for workers, free of child labor.
