CRC Article 36

Nobody may use you for their benefit

You can ask how your image, personal data or labour will be used, and report other exploitative uses.

How you can use it

1. 1Name the harm — online coercion, forced begging, or being used for someone else’s benefit.
2. 2Tell a teacher, carer, caseworker, police officer or advocate.
3. 3Ask for a safety plan and a written follow-up date.

What a violation looks like

A provider uses a child’s image, data or unpaid labour for commercial benefit.

Words you can use

“I am being exploited and I need protection.”

If speaking is hard, write it, draw it, send a message, or ask a trusted adult to say it with you.
