Tajikistan
In Tajikistan, more than fifty percent of the inhabitants live below the poverty line. Among them, 66% are under the age of 18. More than one million Tajiks migrate to Russia every year. Children abandoned by their migrating parents are more likely to be working, have poorer school performance and especially girls have difficulties in accessing non-compulsory education after 9th grade.
