Child Labour Online Group
Twitter We set up twitter accounts to promote our blog. We found this very useful as it allowed us to reach a broader audience. We used Twitpic to upload pictures of our progress as well as the progress of the other groups.
Our twitter accounts
Facebook We linked our twitter accounts to our facebooks. This allowed us to update both social networking sites at the same time. It also meant that we could get more people to hear about what we were doing with regards to our child labour project.
Our blog To get our message across we set up a blog where we each wrote our own articles about present child labour. This included articles about, what is child labour?, some facts, effects of child labour, child labour and exploitation in the UK and child labour with regards to the 2010 World Cup. We also included some pictures of child labour and a video of vox pops showing young people’s views on child labour.

Child labour
Aim Through our online project we want to target young people to create awareness of child labour and hopefully to break the cycle. This was a lot of hard work but we feel that it was an important issue that hopefully we have addressed.
