Summary

This report presents a profile of street children interviewed in June 2006 in 12 Zambian towns by means of a structured questionnaire with a view to understand the problem better by gathering life style and life circumstances data. It should be emphasised that the data is not based on a census but on what can be defined as a sample of sufficient size (1584 respondents) to produce reliable data. The emphasis in developing this profile was placed on generating information that would beuseful for policy development.
