Several problems have led to
the creation of the informal community in Dewei’a, the most important of which
are the lack of education and poverty that characterized the majority of the
families living in the area. This has led to the growth of the informal
settlement, and the eruption of several diseases and the general deterioration
of children’s health. Many parents have been forced to pull their children out
of school, pushing them to work in professions that are detrimental to their
health in order to financially benefit from the children. This has led to the
appearance of street children, as well as criminal elements, while some women
have resorted to illegitimate work.
