HEATLEY TEJADA, Ana. Vulnerability to Poverty and Youth: Lack of Protection and Adultcentrism. Gest. polít. pública [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.1, pp.127-158. Epub 25-Ago-2023. ISSN 1405-1079. https://doi.org/10.29265/gypp.v31i1.1015.
This article analyses risk factors and fragility conditions that expose Mexican youth to an increased vulnerability to poverty, compared to adults. Structural factors -such as the institutional design of social protection and the labour market- and relational factors -such as discrimination and adultcentrism- are examined to gain a wider and more comprehensive perspective on the situations that might have adverse effects in the living conditions of this population group. This study could contribute to improve the coherence of public policy for the youth, which has focused on exploiting youth’s potential for economic growth over present and future well-being of the people who are currently young.
