Furthermore, in this report, the use of \u201c0\u201318 years\u201d applies to all children aged from zero up until their 18th birthday. The use of 0\u201315 years refers to all children aged from zero up until their 15th birthday. Key messages on the state of social protection for children u The positive impacts of social protection for children are beyond question. Extensive evidence shows that child-sensitive social protection reduces poverty while also contributing to income security in households, with broader significance for child health, education and food security and protection.<\/p>\n<p>There are 2.4 billion children in this world who all need adequate social protection. However, today, children are still twice as likely as adults to live in poverty. Over 800 million children are living on less than US$3.20 a day, 1.3 billion children are living on less than US$5.50 a day and over a billion are living in multidimensional poverty \u2013 deprived of key dimensions of childhood such as health, education and nutrition. The impacts on children are both immediate and lifelong \u2013 heightening rights violations such as child labour and child marriage, and diminishing children\u2019s aspirations and opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2548 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Urgent-Need-to-Build-Universal-Social-Protection.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"287\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Urgent-Need-to-Build-Universal-Social-Protection.jpg 287w, https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Urgent-Need-to-Build-Universal-Social-Protection-215x300.jpg 215w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 287px) 100vw, 287px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u0418\u0437\u0432\u043e\u0440: WUNRN \u2013 02.03.2023<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Direct Link to Full 136-Page ILO &amp; UNICEF Publication: wcms_869602.pdf (ilo.org) Although there are approximately 2.4 billion children aged 0\u201318 years worldwide, this report presents effective coverage data for those aged 0\u201315 years, which equates to 2 billion children in&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2548,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"post_series":[],"class_list":["post-2547","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-vesti","entry","has-media"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2547","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2547"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2547\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2549,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2547\/revisions\/2549"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2548"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2547"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2547"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2547"},{"taxonomy":"post_series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthrights.mk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpost_series&post=2547"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
