Children at risk of poverty or social exclusion

According to Eurostat, in 2024, almost 20 million children in the EU were at risk of poverty or social exclusion. This represented 24.2% of children under the age of 18.

I’ve visualised the data with three different graphs you can see below using Posit (previously known as R studio).

For more information, please visit Eurostat article.
