Latin Americans: Dignity Denied to Region’s Youth

 

By Steve Crabtree

 

·   In just 7 of 25 countries do most people say children are treated with respect

 

Across 25 Latin American countries surveyed in 2006 and 2007, a median 41% of residents say children in their country are treated with dignity and respect. That’s far below the median result for any other global region, including Africa, where the median figure is 60%.
