| Descripción: | Introduction. Although there has been progress in recognizing the importance of policies on children and adolescents for the integral and sustained development of societies, their evaluation is still an unconsolidated process. Objective. This article of systematic review of specialized literature aims to examine evaluationsof programs for children and adolescents, through the analysis of reports with evaluative evidence on the effects of interventions in three areas: education, poverty and violence, developed in Latin America and the Caribbean. Methodology. A systematic search was carried out in the repository of the Latin American and Caribbean Monitoring, Evaluation and Systematization Network (RELAC),considering the PRISMA method (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses). We identified 66 evaluations, which after review were downgraded to 14. Results. The selected evaluations were carried out in 7 countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Brazil) and were published between 2009 and 2021. Most of them referred to conditional economic transfers and socio-educational interventions. A description of its main results is included, as well as the implemented approach to the participation ofchildren and adolescents. Conclusions. Although limited, the number and scope of the evaluations reviewed allow us to identify some achievements and gaps relevant to public management and the definition of future evaluation agendas. |
