Violence against children : preliminary evidence from Colombia, El Salvador, Cambodia, and Ecuador

2008 
The issue of child abuse in developing countries is of utmost importance for designing policies directed to vulnerable children and aimed at combating the worst forms of child labor. Unfortunately there is limited empirical basis for formulating policies and programs addressing violence against children in developing countries. This preliminary study uses data from El Salvador (SIMPOC 2001), Colombia (SIMPOC 2001), Cambodia (SIMPOC, 2001) and Ecuador (SIMPOC, 2001) and constitutes a starting point for a more detailed analysis of the issue of children abuse.
