| Title | A multidimensional approach to the analysis of poverty and social exclusion among children |
| Participants | Amélia Bastos (Principal Investigator) |
| Summary | This project continues the investigation initiated in the previous year. In this context, a joint project with Rede Europeia Anti-Pobreza has been started aimimg at contruct a diagnosis of the problem of child poverty in Portugal. We apply a multidimensional approach to the problem of child poverty, considering the child as the unit of observation and measurement. The design of effective social policies to alleviate this problem is needed. However, to assure the efficiency of such policies the knowledge of child poverty features is required. The research developed in this project intends to contribute to this knowledge by designing a picture of the problem and shedding light in its dynamics aspects. |
