It is estimated that there are more than 125 million people Latin America who self-identify as Afrodescendants (ECLAC, 2015). This population group is subject to discrimination, poverty and vulnerability. Afrodescendants also face greater difficulties throughout the life cycle, for example in attaining higher levels of education and entering the labour market on an equal footing.
