Côte d'Ivoire: Educating children on the job

Nibon Soro and Kartenin Silué, two children living in the Korhogo region of northern Côte d'Ivoire, should be in school. But, farm duties -- and their family's poverty -- stand in the way of education. The two, both under 10, drive the draught animals that help with ploughing. "We really want to go to school, but our father says that he doesn't have the money to educate us, and there is no-one to help him in the fields either," they told IPS.
