Neutrosophic multicriteria method for the evaluation of stolen children through child labor in Riobamba

Abstract

Child labor in the city of Riobamba is a problem that deeply affects the development and well-being of children. The reality of child labor is alarming since many boys and girls are deprived of their childhood and forced to work in precarious and dangerous conditions in order to support themselves day by day. This research proposes the development of a multicriteria neutrosophic method for the evaluation of stolen childhood through child labor in Riobamba. The proposed method bases its operation on a multicriteria approach to evaluation. The results are presented based on the development of an illustrative example. It was found in the research that poverty and lack of access to education and labor exploitation are the main causes of child labor in Riobamba, in addition to identifying negative aspects in the health, education and development of boys and girls. It is necessary to integrate policies that promote universal access to education as well as social protection measures and support for vulnerable Riobamba families in order to eradicate child labor and guarantee the well-being of the city's boys and girls.
