Abstract

Abstract – Irregular migration of children and adolescents in Honduras represents a multidimensional problem with significant impacts on education, social stability and child protection. This pre-feasibility study examines the requirements for the development of a computer system aimed at the registration, monitoring and school reintegration of migrant minors, addressing its implications from the formulation of the project, its social impact and risk management. A quantitative and causal methodological approach was applied, using surveys, documentary analysis and direct observations to evaluate the technical and operational viability of the system. The findings indicate that the lack of a unified information system aggravates educational exclusion and limits the effectiveness of prevention strategies. In addition, economic, administrative and social barriers are identified that make the reintegration of minors into the educational system difficult. The implementation of a digital platform would optimize data collection and management, facilitating coordination between government and educational institutions and cooperation organizations. This study demonstrates the need for innovative technological tools to improve educational management in highly vulnerable contexts, aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and reinforcing protection policies for migrant children. The results demonstrate that a structured technological solution can improve educational continuity, facilitate institutional coordination and support child protection policy formulation processes [1]
