Goal 8

THE BRUTALITY OF SUGAR: DEBT CHILD MARRIAGE AND HYSTERECTOMIES

Objective 8 includes sub-objectives:

• Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, the creation of decent work, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services
• By 2030, achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, including young people and people with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value
• substantially reduce the proportion of unemployed young people not in education or training
• Take immediate ameasures to eliminate forced labour, end modern slavery and human trafficking and the prohibition and elimination of the worst forms of child labour, including the child labor in all its forms
• Protect labor rights and promote a safe and secure working environment for all workers.

The title "The Brutality of Sugar: Debt, Child Marriage, and Hysterectomies" suggests a narrative exploring the dark side of the sugar industry, particularly in regions where sugar cultivation is prevalent. Here's a breakdown of each element mentioned:

• Debt: Sugar cultivation often involves small-scale farmers who may become trapped in cycles of debt due to various factors such as fluctuating sugar prices, high input costs, and reliance on loans for agricultural inputs.
• Child Marriage: In regions where sugar production is a dominant industry, there may be a correlation between poverty and cultural practices like child marriage.
• Hysterectomies: There have been reports of unethical practices in some sugarcane-producing regions, where female workers are subjected to unnecessary hysterectomies performed by unscrupulous medical practitioners. This exploitation not only violates human rights but also reflects systemic issues such as inadequate labor rights, lack of access to healthcare, and gender discrimination
