Resumen
DURAN STRAUCH, Ernesto y VALOYES, Elizabeth. Profile of Colombian boys, girls and adolescents without parental care. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2009, vol.7, n.2, pp.761-783. ISSN 1692-715X.
The situation of boys, girls and adolescents (BGA) without parental care is a topic that has been neglected in this country. A characterization of the problem from primary and secondary sources was made. Various methodological strategies were implemented: document analysis, database and statistical report analysis, semi-structured interviews, discussion groups and workshops. All of the risk situations that result in the lack of parental care take place in Colombia: poverty, displacement, national and international migrations, natural disasters, armed conflict, disability, intra-familial violence, among others were also analyzed. The data indicate that the magnitude of the problem is enormous as well as its implications on the violation of rights. The organized social response to the problem is limited both in the prevention and in the recovery of the rights.
