Esclavitud Infantil en el contexto peruano | Jornada

Child labor persists in Peru, affecting millions of children across hazardous sectors such as mining and agriculture. Despite efforts by the government and non-governmental organizations, protective policies fail to eradicate this systemic exploitation, revealing a critical gap in national social protection frameworks. This issue underscores the urgent need for improved public data to understand the scope and nature of child labor. Reliable, open statistics are essential for designing effective interventions, holding authorities accountable, and mobilizing societal resources to protect vulnerable minors from severe health and educational deprivation.
