Description:
|
A democratic society cannot tolerate poverty, inequalities and the unjust conditions in which many children and girl children live. Sexual exploitation and trafficking of children are some of the worst forms of violence generated by poverty, social exclusion and gender discrimination. They deny many children of a future and break the social fabric. The foremost challenge is for public policy to break this cycle of social exclusion, the black holes of Brazilian society that the State and basic social services do not reach, where people survive on a daily basis without hope for the future in conditions that generate new forms of violence. The "captains of the sands”, street children as portrayed by Brazilian novelist Jorge Amado years ago, are not captains anymore but pawns in the hands of organized crime. |
