The overall objective of the report is to study the extent and characteristics of productive activities (i.e. economic and non-economic) carried out by children and adolescents between 5 and 17 years of age in El Salvador, and in particular, identify the forms of work prohibited by national legislation and international conventions ratified by the country, with particular emphasis on those that should be urgently eradicated (e.g., hazardous work).

The objectives of this report are to determine the magnitude and characteristics of economic activity (occupancy rates, child labor, hazardous work, risk of forced labor) and to analyze patterns of time use (participation in economic activities, school attendance and participation in housework at home) of children aged 5 to 17 years in Peru. It also aims to analyze the determinants of the relationship between the participation of children of this age group in economic activities and school, describe the relationship between child labor and health, estimate the magnitude and characterize the participation of children in domestic tasks in the home itself, and present the progress of the National Strategy for the Prevention and Eradication of Child Labor project from 2012-2021.
