UNICEF recently revealed that poverty figures in Argentina have increased exponentially, impacting those who have the least, but especially the youngest, who have seen their daily meals reduced.
According to the survey carried out by the bodymore than 1 million children skip a meal a day, usually dinner. It was also revealed that almost 5 million parents eat less by prioritizing meals for their children.
Among the data expressed, the government’s economic policies have achieved that part of the population not only eats less, but also makes it difficult to obtain and multiply jobs.Another key to understanding how dire the national situation is is that prices increased exponentially during the first half of the year.
National data is not encouraging at all, as INDEC released figures for the poor population, which increased from 44% to 54% in just the first half of this year.These numbers have been devastating for society, which has seen its real purchasing power significantly reduced.

Several non-profit organizations have expressed their overwhelming rejection of the policies adopted by the new government, in addition to the claim against the deputies and senators who promoted the modifications of the Law Bases that are being signed these days.
The concern
Yes ok UNICEF has expressed its concern about what is happening in Argentina, several countries in the region are looking with concern at the national future due to financial agreements with foreign companies, especially for the plundering of resources.
Experts draw a stark comparison with Brazil, which has seen its poverty rates significantly reduced since Lula Da Silva took over the government. Countries that have been brothers with similar visions over time are now completely separated by an increasingly difficult reality.
