Abstract
First this study has tried to provide a global perspective of intervention programs worldwide through documentary and
library methods by collecting and reporting on important government intervention programs in the field of street children. In the second step, the present study, considering its sociological and critical position, has evaluated these programs and tried to reveal the neoliberal view behind these programs and to clarify their role in the vulnerability and instability of these programs. In fact, through a meta-analysis of evaluations of successful programs, the neoliberal view is described as a set of policies and plans that prevent these programs from achieving the goal of permanently eliminating street child labor. The results of this study indicate that intervention programs are designed to increase economic growth and therefore suffer from disadvantages such as temporary, limited, disconnected and non-optimal. From the results obtained and according to the data of the analytical part of the research in the final part, a model has been designed and proposed based on the values of inclusiveness, integrity, quality and sustainability.
