Nutrition plays a significant role in growth and development of children. Progress in reducing malnutrition has been slower and more uneven, especially in developing countries. Reduction in chronic malnutrition among young children was one of the primary objectives of Millennium Development Goals (MDG). However, 162 million young children are still suffering from chronic malnutrition [1]. In 2014, an estimated 159 million children under five years of age globally were stunted, 50 million were wasted and 91 million children were underweight. About half of all stunted children lived in Asia and over one-third in Africa. Similarly, twothirds of all wasted children lived in Asia and almost one third in Africa [2]. Therefore, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) also concentrate to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture (SDG-2) by 2030 [3].

Abstract. Economic changes in the context of globalization have left adolescents from Latin American contexts with few opportunities to make satisfactory transitions into adulthood. Recent studies indicate that there is a protracted period between the end of schooling and entering into formal working activities. While in this “limbo,” illicit activities, such as drug trafficking may emerge as an alternative for young people to ensure their social participation. This article aims to deepen the understanding of Brazilian youth’s involvement in drug trafficking and its intersection with their schooling, work, and aspirations, connecting with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 and 16 as proposed in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted by the United Nations in 2015 .
