Child poverty rates are rising globally, with the U.S. Census Bureau reporting an increase from 15% to 15.3% among children despite a decrease in overall poverty rates. In the U.K., children's social workers noted a spike in families relying on food banks, with 85% reporting increased usage, while 79% observed more children at risk of harm. In Zimbabwe, a staggering 60% of rural children face multidimensional poverty, aggravated by educational inequities exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, a report from Queensland highlights that many families are struggling to afford basic necessities, leading parents to skip meals to ensure their children are fed. The data underscores the need for enhanced social policies and support systems, as many families find themselves in precarious financial situations despite overall income increases in some regions. The calls for renewed financial assistance and comprehensive social support are echoed across various regions to combat the rising child poverty crisis.
