Description:
|
The Agenda for action against commercial sexual exploitation of children provides a detailed framework and categories of actions to be taken by governments in partnership and other relevant actors for combating commercial sexual crimes against children. Broadly, these actions are focused on : coordination and cooperation, prevention, recovery, rehabilitation and reintegration, child participation. The Agenda for action is thus the formal and guiding structure used by governments that have adopted it and committed to work against CSEC. New Zealand finalised its National Plan of Action against commercial sexual exploitation of children, entitled Protecting Our Innocence in Dec. 2001. Nevertheless, it is rarely, if ever, referred to in related government policies or work programmes. So the Government should provide adequate provisions for implementing and monitoring the plan, particularly in relation to allocation of adequate resources, coordination and monitoring. |
