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. Egypt has not developed a National Plan of action against CSEC. As a follow up to the ratification of the Optional Protocol, Egypt must urgently develop a national plan of action to address sexual abuse and all forms of commercial sexual exploitation of children. The National Council of Childhood and Motherhood is a key institution to take the lead in the process, which should involve the participation of children as well as stakeholders such as the police and social workers. |
