Latin America and the Caribbean are home to approximately 10% of the world's adolescents, and these regions account for 50% of the world's child murders. 15 million adolescent girls between the ages of 15 - 19 are estimated to have experienced forced sex in their lifetimes. Now six child-focused organizations have formed a partnership to address the direct needs of children worldwide.
