Abstract

U ovom radu je prikazan detaljan pregled podjele siromaštva i dječjeg siromaštva. Razlikovanje ova dva pojma je veoma važno, iako je višedimenzionalnost prisutna u oba. Život u dugotrajnom i kratkotrajnom siromaštvu ostavlja posljedice na svaku osobu, ali djeca su posebno pogođena. Siromaštvo negativno utječe na razvoj djece, zbog neadekvatne prehrane, nedostatak rane stimulacije i učenja, te izloženost stresu koji traje cijeli život, dovodi do zaostajanja u razvoju, niske razine potrebnih vještina za život i rad. Najvažnija razlika između siromaštva i dječjeg siromaštva su djeca i njihova bespomoćnost u situaciji u kojoj se nalaze. U radu je prikazano nastojanje Europske unije da zajedno s državama članicama pristupi problemu siromaštva djece kroz programe. Zbog krize pandemije bolesti izazvane virusom COVID -19 donesena je nova Preporuka Vijeća Europe; „Prevladavanje siromaštva i društvene isključenosti – ublažavanje utjecaja bolesti COVID-19 na obitelji – suradnja na razvoju izgleda za snažnu djecu”. Hrvatskoj su u najvećem riziku od siromaštvu kućanstva s više uzdržavanih članova i samohrana kućanstva, a obrazovanje i zaposlenost su jedini sigurni načini da se siromaštvo smanji. Zbog toga je važno da zemlje, kroz socijalnu politiku provode mjere kojima će se siromaštvo ublažiti. Omogućiti djeci obrazovanje, zdravstvenu skrb, hranu i uživanje u djetinjstvu.

Abstract (english)

This paper presents a detailed overview of the differences between poverty and child poverty. It is important to distinguishing these two concepts, although both are featured by multidimensionality. Long-term and short-term poverty leaves consequences for every person, however children are particularly affected. Poverty negatively affects the development of children, due to inadequate nutrition, lack of early stimulation and learning, and exposure to lifelong stress and leads to developmental delays, low levels of skills needed for life and work. The most important difference between poverty and child poverty can be attributed to the fact that they are helpless and undeveloped when compared to adults in the situation in which they find themselves. The paper presents the efforts of the European Union to work with the Member States to address the problem of child poverty through programs. Due to the pandemic crisis caused by the COVID-19 virus, a new Council of Europe Recommendation was adopted; "Overcoming Poverty and Social Exclusion - Mitigating the Impact of COVID-19 on families - Collaborating to Develop Prospects for Strong Children." In Croatia, households with more dependent members and single households are at greatest risk of poverty, and education and employment are the only sure ways to reduce poverty. It is therefore important that countries, through social policy, implement measures to alleviate poverty. Provide children with education, health care, food and enjoyment of childhood.
