Opis

Investments in cash transfer programmes have been frequent in democratic countries with emerging economies that suffer from economic, social and educational inequality, so they have emerged as a way of distributing income and improving the quality of life of the poorest population. The Bolsa Familia programme has been consolidated as an alternative for overcoming economic and educational inequalities in Brazil, guaranteeing a reduction in extreme poverty and contributing to children in situations of social risk in continental Brazil having access to and staying in school. However, public policies need to be constantly re-evaluated in terms of their objectives and results so as not to run the risk of failure even in the face of high public investment.
