   1. because social exclusion born poverty and its represented by the 50% in Guatemala, the lack of education is other problem, the level of education in Guatemala is extremely low. Migration in Guatemala, have a high percentage and that is because the condition that some people live such as extremely poverty, this requires Guatemala people to come and go from one place to another to search for a better apace in order to have better opportunities and equality. This condition happen very frequently in Guatemala for conditions such as uncompleted education or illiteracy
4. the formal and informal sector of society are affected and they are linked with social exclusion

In contrast with the formal sector making the 33.28% have a stable job in Guatemala, that’s mean with the guarantee of a minimum wage, access to social security, and vacation benefits.
5. conclusion
