October 1st we will publish the call for a funded PhD student to work @demosocupf.bsky.social in the project 'Unpacking the Puzzle of Child Poverty: Why Child Poverty Persists Despite Economic Recovery and Declining Inequality', funded by the Spanish Research Agency. Interested? Get in touch!

Project description: UNPACK departs from three empirical observations about child poverty. First, child poverty rates in Spain are consistently higher than would be expected by its economic development. Second, child poverty rates have not decreased with economic growth since the end of the Great Recession, while adult poverty rates do, even if slightly. Third, recent policy reforms targeted at combatting inequality and reducing poverty have resulted in improvements in employment and several welfare and equity indicators, but appear to have limited impact on child poverty reduction.
High child poverty rates in Spain, and more widely Southern Europe, have been traditionally associated with weak labour markets and underdeveloped social protection systems that poorly target families with children. However, neither improving labour market prospects nor the introduction of new policy initiatives appear to impact child poverty rates. This project seeks to approach this puzzle by (a) further exploring child poverty trends in Spain and (Southern) Europe, (b) extending the literature on child poverty and labour markets with particular attention to poverty dynamics, and (c) analysing the design and outcomes of recent poverty reforms in Southern Europe targeted at reducing child poverty. In doing so, the project seeks to further our understanding of the determinants of disappointing child poverty trends in Spain and Europe, and elaborate relevant policy proposals
