Global Study on Child Poverty and Disparities: The Case of the Philippines

The report provides a comprehensive analysis of child poverty in the Philippines. Published by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), it examines various indicators such as education, social protection, poverty, and health to assess the welfare and living conditions of Filipino children.

The study highlights significant disparities in child poverty based on gender, income, and geographic location, noting that children in rural areas are more affected than those in urban areas. It also discusses the multiple dimensions of deprivation, including shelter, sanitation, and water, and proposes strategies for improving child well-being through a rights-based approach.
