The report reviews evidence of child
labor in Brazil, and the Government's efforts to
eradicate its worst forms, by examining background
assessments of ongoing programs for its prevention. It seeks
to identify promising strategies, addressing the needs of
highly vulnerable children in urban areas, engaged in
activities such as drug commerce, prostitution, or other
dangerous activities. One such program is the Child Labor
Eradication Program - PETI - unique in that it provides a
conceivable strategy to address by 2002, the incidence of
child labor. The assessments demonstrate that the program
has been successful in reducing child labor rates, school
attendance has increased as a result of the program, and,
attitudinal and other changes have occurred as a result of
the program. The report outlines the political, and legal
debate on child labor, examining indicators and trends in
Brazil, as well as the determinants of child labor, linking
child labor and poverty to its structural determinants, and
how economic crises affect child labor. A description of
child labor outcomes follows, specifying how child labor
leads to low educational attainment, and low earnings,
including its implications for adult wages, income, and
poverty, summarizing targeted program expansion and future challenges. |
