SOCIAL EXCLUSION IN HUNGARY FROM A CHILD PROTECTION PERSPECTIVE
Abstract
This paper deals with the issue of social exclusion from a child protection perspective. With the help of publications, statistical data, and the presentation of the main research results, the issue of child poverty is discussed, the main emphasis being on the situation of children removed from or leaving their families, especially those living in residential care homes. In Hungary, the number of studies related to the child protection system is limited and little is known about the school career, employment, or family establishment of those with a care background. We have little information about how well the system prepares them for independent life and how to classify their social integration. The paper also discusses the development of and challenges facing Hungarian child protection on a systemic level.Downloads
