It's a pleasure for me today to guide you through this module.
5
00:00:25,420 --> 00:00:28,100
So far you've heard about child rights.
6
00:00:28,100 --> 00:00:33,940
And violence against children and its connections to the topic of sexual exploitation.
7
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,799
And also, you learned why it's so important to use adequate terminology.
8
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,610
Today, we will dive more into depth.
9
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:50,200
On sexual Exploitation of children and to highlight what you need to know
10
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:56,799
as a professional for the work with child victims or presumed Child victims of Sexual exploitation.
11
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:04,500
So how will this module be shaped? First, I'm going to define What sexual Exploitation means
12
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:07,209
and what manifestations it Can take
13
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:10,800
Then we will take a very brief look at the history of the sexual exploitation of children
14
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:18,100
Understand Why it is so important for the international community to recognize the sexual exploitation of children as a concept
15
00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:24,520
and as my last point, I will guide you through Ten basic principles which are relevant.
16
00:01:24,700 --> 00:01:31,390
For Professionals Working directly with Victims of Sexual Exploitation of children.
17
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:37,400
It's good to remember Those when you then listen to My fellow colleagues
18
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,950
who will teach you about the interlinkages of sex manifestations
19
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,719
About the impact that sexual exploitation Has on a child.
20
00:01:47,110 --> 00:01:50,020
Let's start with a short recap on sexual exploitation.
21
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:56,000
A child Can become a victim of sexual exploitation of children when he takes part in a sexual activity
22
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,500
in Exchange for something And this Can be from a third Party
23
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:04,060
the perpetrator, or by the child himself Or herself.
24
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:09,159
Exploitation in this context is a key term as it marks The difference.
25
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,930
To child sexual abuse or other forms of sexual Violence against children.
26
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,230
We can say that the sexual exploitation of children mostly
27
00:02:17,230 --> 00:02:19,060
appears in five manifestations.
28
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:25,059
We see sexual exploitation of children in digital Environments Or Online.
29
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:30,009
For Example, through the exchange of Child sexual exploitation material.
30
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:34,240
We see the sexual exploitation of children in prostitution through prostitution.
31
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:38,080
We see sex exploitation In the context of travel and tourism.
32
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:41,319
This can be both Internationally and domestically.
33
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:48,200
We see sexual exploitation in Form of child trafficking for sexual purposes
34
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,110
and also as a form of child-early or forced marriages.
35
00:02:53,700 --> 00:02:55,510
That enables Sexual exploitation.
36
00:02:55,700 --> 00:03:02,199
This means Where adults Benefit financially from contracting an under-aged Union.
37
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:09,200
You will hear throughout this course that those manifestations
38
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,390
are not strictly to be divided
39
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:17,800
because the lines in the linkages increasingly Become Blurred.
40
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:25,800
Because the greater mobility of People, the higher Importance Of the Internet
41
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:31,600
and communication tools, really make those connections stronger.
42
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:37,200
Also Between manifestations So one and the Same child can Become multiple times victims.
43
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,840
Also of Multiple manifestations Of sexual exploitation.
44
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:44,800
Sexual exploitation by Far is not a new phenomenon.
45
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:51,879
But when has been Recognized As a Problem That requires Joint solutions.
46
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:59,200
In the early nineties Academic research was Presented at a conference in Chiang Mai Thailand
47
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:06,100
for the first time showing the negative impact on Societies of sexual exploitation.
48
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:08,700
In the context of travel and tourism.
49
00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:15,700
Those results were just so impactful that the participants of this conference spontaneously gathered Together
50
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:19,050
and founded a campaign against this. And the campaign.
51
00:04:19,050 --> 00:04:21,930
Was called Experts in Child Prostitution.
52
00:04:21,930 --> 00:04:23,190
Innovation, Tourism.
53
00:04:23,700 --> 00:04:29,400
Very briefly, it became clear it's not only the scope of Asia, it's for sure.
54
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,150
Not only.The manifestation of prostitution.
55
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:39,180
And definitively we should not call it Prostitution in this context.
56
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,400
So the acronym stayed, but its meaning, Content, and reach.
57
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,709
Expanded throughout The year to today.
58
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:53,910
A milestone for the recognition Of sexual Exploitation as an old form of violence against children.
59
00:04:54,300 --> 00:05:00,500
And with all its additional layers and complexities, was the first World Congress
60
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:07,620
on commercial Sexual Exploitation of children in Stockholm and Sweden in the year 1996.
61
00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:13,690
As a result, namely through the Stockholm Declaration, the agenda For Action.
62
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,270
Was an overwhelming commitment of 119 governments.
63
00:05:19,500 --> 00:05:22,059
To fight the sexual Exploitation of children.
64
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,579
But the groundbreaking News about that was they realized that they Cannot do this alone.
65
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,740
They need partners from law enforcement private sector and civil society.
66
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,100
This really has set the foundation for the idea of shared responsibility between countries
67
00:05:39,100 --> 00:05:43,869
of Origin and countries of destination As well as necessity.
68
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:48,700
For international and multidisciplinary cooperation in this Field
69
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:53,979
which we to this day see as the key Requirement in our Efforts to protect children.
70
00:05:54,100 --> 00:05:55,899
And to bring offenders To justice.
71
00:05:56,300 --> 00:06:01,500
Showing me my fellow lecturers will share their long experiences with you
72
00:06:01,500 --> 00:06:07,929
working directly with children, with experiences of sexual. Exploitation and it's all forms.
73
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:14,800
But before we go into those details, I would like to share with You ten basic Principles.
74
00:06:15,100 --> 00:06:18,190
As a mindset For further learning.
75
00:06:20,900 --> 00:06:25,550
First When we say child, we mean every person below the age of 18.
76
00:06:26,900 --> 00:06:33,800
The child Must always be treated as a victim, regardless of its age or in its attitude
77
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:40,200
to What happens. Any form of transaction to obtain Sexual services from the child
78
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:46,100
even with the child's consent, is a criminal act of the involved adult because
79
00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:50,600
no child ever Can Consent to its own exploitation.
80
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:57,900
Obviously, it's not always easy to identify all victims of sexual exploitation
81
00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:04,040
or other forms of exploitation, specifically involved.In criminal acts like.
82
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:11,240
Shoplifting or selling Drugs If you as a professional have Suspicion.
83
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:16,130
About an ongoing exploitation of a child, you must act.
84
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:20,869
We know that those Cases are often quite complex and complicated.
85
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,569
The process is not an easy one to start.
86
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,540
But turning a blind eye out of the fear of doing something Wrong.
87
00:07:29,900 --> 00:07:35,630
Really leads to ongoing violence Against this child and possibly new victims.
88
00:07:36,700 --> 00:07:42,889
The child has the right to psychosocial support From the moment of its identification.
89
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,110
As long as it's required.
90
00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:50,990
And this applies before And After possible criminal proceedings.
91
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:57,110
Children also have the right to Know what is happening with And them.
92
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:03,500
After contacting support services for the police or for medical observation
93
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:07,009
or psychological or any other form of support.
94
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,400
When giving explanations to the child about each step
95
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,570
please use age-appropriate language that is Understandable To the child.
96
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:23,539
The opinion of the child should be taken into consideration when making decisions.
97
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,910
This will help the child to cope with the Feeling of helplessness.
98
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,100
And to regain control over his life.
99
00:08:32,100 --> 00:08:37,069
We know from experience that children don't quite understand what's Going on.
100
00:08:37,900 --> 00:08:41,200
And don't agree necessarily with the steps proposed To them
101
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:47,119
because they were not well explained, that it's for their own benefit and well-being.
102
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,900
We run the risk of Children Removing themselves from childcare facilities.
103
00:08:53,900 --> 00:09:00,500
So in other words, children, of course, run away if they don't feel safe
104
00:09:00,500 --> 00:09:04,910
and don't see the benefit of being within the support system.
105
00:09:07,310 --> 00:09:09,020
Talking about child care facilities.
106
00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:16,800
It is very necessary that all shelters, safe houses, and other childcare facilities
107
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:22,100
develop And implement a child protection Policy if not required by law.
108
00:09:22,100 --> 00:09:27,700
Already this includes also training for All Employees on mechanisms.
109
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:33,470
To apply in case something happens within The facility.
110
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,820
And it is very Highly recommended not to Start such a process
111
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:39,900
Only when something Happens.
112
00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:44,630
You should better see this as part of your prevention measures.
113
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,759
There is no one-fit solution.
114
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,300
Any step of the support And protection system must be based on the needs assessment
115
00:09:52,300 --> 00:09:58,669
of Each child, individually Sexual abuse and exploitation of children are preventable crimes.
116
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:07,000
This means systematic preventive work with children themselves, with parents, caregivers, teachers, professionals, and Criminals.
117
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,320
And society as a whole is needed.
118
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:17,700
And the last and very important point is that cooperation is key, but not individual.
119
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:21,440
And no single institution can protect the child alone.
120
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,179
We must Cooperate.
121
00:10:23,900 --> 00:10:25,279
We must work together.
