May Labour Day IPJ Special: Year 2014 Nobel Peace Laureate Kailash Satyarthi, Man who fought against the worst form of labour practice- Child Labour

we have the distinct honour of speaking with Year 2014 Nobel Peace Laureate Kailash Satyarthi, a global leader whose lifelong work has transformed the fight against child labour, trafficking, and exploitation.
