| Özet: | This fact sheet presents preliminary findings from the fifth round of the Young Lives survey of children in Peru in 2016. Young Lives is a longitudinal study on childhood poverty that has followed two cohorts of children born seven years apart, collecting household and child-level survey data from households in Peru since 2002. This fact sheet presents preliminary findings on changes that have taken place in household welfare for the Younger Cohort, and reports on some selected outcomes for the Older Cohort. The data continue to show significant improvement in the living standards of the children’s households that is consistent with the country ́s economic performance over the same period. By comparing households from different socio-economic backgrounds, we have seen that many differentials in welfare-related outcomes have substantially reduced over time; however, new ones have arisen. |
