Resumen
Descripción
Senegal has a relatively low child
mobility rate (children who leave their parents). Yet,
concern has been raised with regards to the vulnerability of
girls who work as domestic servants and boys who leave to
study the Koran within informal structures. To learn more
about their numbers and the reasons why they leave, Fafo
Institute for Applied International Studies (Fafo) and
l Ecole nationale d economie appliquee (ENEA), supported by
the World Bank trust fund, TFESSD, in 2009, launched a rural
household survey that aimed to quantify child mobility
practices and identify the features of the households from
which the children come. The vulnerability of rural
households to risks and shocks related to climatic
conditions like drought, irregular rainfall, animal disease
and locust was of special concern. This report presents the
main results of this project.
