Child Poverty in Rich Nations

Submitted by crinadmin on

The league tables of child poverty presented in this first Innocenti
Report Card are the most comprehensive estimates so far of child
poverty across the industrialised world. Despite a doubling and
redoubling of national incomes in most of the 23 OECD nations
since 1950, a significant percentage of children are still living in
families so materially poor that normal health and growth are at
risk. The first in a new series, this Report Card is intended as a
contribution to the debate on how such poverty can best be
defined, measured and reduced.
