Poverty and inequality in Latin America are easily recognizable in the faces of women, Afro-descendents, the indigenous, people with disabilities, victims of HIV/AIDS, and other groups outside the societal mainstream.

Comparative studies summarize social inclusion policies of both the European Union and selected countries on the Continent.
