In Sweden, one-fifth of all children grow up in relative child poverty. Children who grow up in socially vulnerable areas are affected to a greater extent than children who grow up in safer, more prosperous areas. In Malmö, there are several areas with low socioeconomics. In these areas, there is high unemployment and a low level of education among the adult population. There are a large proportion of households with children who receive income support from the labour market and social services and are overcrowded. One of the most important protective factors in a child's upbringing is to be able to complete their schooling with full grades from compulsory school and be able to implement a national program in upper secondary school. A high school diploma is a prerequisite for a socially independent life with self-sufficiency, good health and developing positive social contacts. The organisation of compulsory school is an important factor for children to manage their schooling, but in vulnerable areas more than a well-functioning school is required. Three of the areas identified as having a low socio-economic status are on the police list of particularly vulnerable areas; Södra Sofielund (Seved), Rosengård and Hermodsdal -Nydala - Lindängen. Children and young people from two of these areas will be the focus of this project; Sofielund and Rosengård. The municipality's common view is that a high proportion of children in the areas with low socioeconomics do not move on from primary school to national programmes in upper secondary school and that fewer children are enrolled in after-school care. The proportion of children participating in voluntary activities is low, and even lower among girls between the ages of 12 and 18. Risk and protective factors – what do we know? What can we do with knowledge? Described several protective factors that help strengthen children's ability to cope with their school education. One of these protective factors in the child's life, and which other societal actors can help to strengthen, is organized leisure activities with positive adult role models. There is currently a large group of children between the ages of 8 and 18 in Sofielund and Rosengård who are not reached by adult-led activities in their spare time. Children are instead referred to the public space, which consists of streets, squares and other places. In the public space in these areas, there is both crime and abuse. Children and young people, living in Sofielund, testify to an open drug trafficking around their school environment and that there is a risk of ending up in crime. It is clear that Children and young people in Malmö have unequal growing conditions and that children in Sofielund and Rosengård have the worst conditions today to have their rights met. All stakeholders in the project agree that children's rights need to be strengthened. The project will help to strengthen the child in their knowledge of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and their rights, and develop a working method for increased goal fulfilment of the child's rights from a child rights perspective.
