Unele aspecte ale situației social-economice a copiilor din Republica Moldova

Abstract

Children and youth from the Republic of Moldova are among the most vulnerable groups to poverty. Poverty continues to affect traditionally vulnerable categories of the population. The poorest are families that depend on agricultural activities, older people, people without vocational education and skills, large households and those with many children. Children, as a whole, remain more vulnerable to poverty. For these social groups, specific initiatives are needed to overcome the impact of economic deprivation and social exclusion. This article analyzes the current socioeconomic situation of children in the Republic of Moldova based on the statistical data of the National Bureau of Statistics of the Republic of Moldova, demographically, with regard to juvenile crime, to the standard of living of the households with children, and to the state of children's health.
