Political and social problems of Brazil

1. Name: Dayanna Suárez.

2. The richest 10%
of people in Brazil
have access to
over 40% of the
country’s income.
On the other
hand, the poorest
10% receive
about 1% of the
income.

3. Although all major cities
and countries in the
world experience some
form of crime, Brazil is
particularly susceptible
to this major social
issue. The most common
forms of crime in this
country include mugging,
robbing, kidnapping and
gang violence.

4. Brazil children have access
to free public education at
all levels. Education at a
Primary level is compulsory,
and most of the Primary
schools are maintained by
the municipalities or the
states that they occupy.
This, in turn, means that
poorer children receive a
lower level of education.

5. The Infant
Mortality Rate
(IMR) of Brazil
is another
social issue
that is crucial
to address;
which it has
been in recent
years.
