Ghana's Child Labourers

Tens of thousands of children work for fishermen on Lake Volta in Ghana. Many have been given away by poor families in the hope they would have a better life, but they have been trafficked into forced labour and are treated like slaves. Yalda Hakim joins a team of charity workers travelling around the lake rescuing trafficked children and trying to help them rebuild their lives.
