World Cup Job Prospects Attract Children – RCP
The Refugee Children’s Project (RCP) in Musina says the staging of the FIFA World Cup has resulted in an increase in the number of unaccompanied minors who travel to South Africa.
RCP’s Bertha Chiguvera, says the organisation noted a ‘slight increase’ in the number of children who travel alone to South Africa in search of job opportunities associated with the World Cup.
Chiguvera says the RCP’s staff has encountered about 100 unaccompanied minors since the start of the World Cup on 11 June, adding that the organisation usually saw about 10 minors a day, though the numbers varied every day.
