Siegwerk Argentina begins new partnership with SOS Children’s Villages in 2022
After the collapse of the country, more than half the population ended up living in poverty (roughly 45 per cent in 2002). Although the country saw quick economic recovery, thousands of Argentines have yet to benefit from the economic upturn. At the moment, roughly 11 per cent of the country's population lives in conditions of poverty. Outside of the big cities, rural poverty is a lot higher and remains a problem.
Although the primary school enrolment rate for Argentina is high at 98 per cent, many Argentinian children experience difficulties performing even the most rudimentary reading tasks. Studies show that they lack the basic skills required to participate effectively in society.
Child labour also remains an issue in present-day Argentina: in rural areas, almost a third of all children between the ages of 5 and 13 engage in labor activities. In most cases, work interferes with the child's education, which means that the majority of working children either miss classes on a regular basis or do not attend school at all.
To support local communities where Siegwerk is based, the team in Argentina has partnered with SOS Children’s Villages for 2022. Starting this year, mentoring and online training for young adults will be the focus as new partners in the YouthCan! initiative.
