dc.description.abstractThe document series “Life Skills”, titled “The Hidden Numbers,” provides clear, data-driven snapshots of the prevalence of different disabilities and disorders among school-age children in Latin America and the Caribbean. It uses estimated prevalence rates from the Global Burden of Disease and contrasts them with administrative data from educational systems. The documents are designed for policymakers, ministerial teams, and education professionals seeking practical information to strengthen inclusion, early detection, and support for students.
