Being at the lowest of the socio-economic bar, these excluded youths have to face numerous issues. Poverty remains one of the gravest threats to young people’s life chances and acts as a major hindrance in their growth and development. Due to economic disparity, they are likely to have positive experiences at schools and colleges leading to dropouts. Their choices are limited by economic insecurity, conflict and violence. Unequal distribution of resources further aggravated the situations. The urban centres nearly always provide a greater quantity and diversity of goods, services, and opportunities in comparison to the rural areas.

Moreover, a good deal of vulnerability emerges from the way in which groups of people are treated by the rest of society. Socially excluded communities are more likely to endure unequal access to resources and opportunities because of who they are/or are perceived to be. The interconnection of social exclusion, inequality, and poverty tend to reinforce one another questioning their livelihood and existence, especially the girls. Due to gender disparity in the general community and within their own family, they remain more prone to risk factors.
