Officially there are few countries that would openly admit to having child slavery, however this does not mean that it does not exist. It is well known that in India and surrounding countries, children as young as three years old are sold by their parents for debts and these children work in brick and carpet factories. Illegally child slavery exists in most countries where young girls and boys are kidnapped or abducted and are used in the sex business. Other countries where children are used as slaves are Brazil, Argentina, and countries in South America and also in many African countries. In Thailand there are many sex outlets that employ children. In the Middle East, young boys are used as slaves for Camel Racing. This is a problem that needs to be addressed at all levels, from governments of the world to the man in the street - for example one easy method to counter child slavery is that one should not purchase an item that was made by children in a slave environment.
It is said that these countries have slavery:
Brazil
Cote d'Ivoire
Mali
Niger
Sudan
It is said that in these countries slaves play a key role in cultivating cash crops. However, various forms of human trafficking and debt bondage are found in many other countries, too.
