children at risk: sexual exploitation

Project Summary

 

Title: Children at Risk: Sexual Exploitation

Date: Ongoing

Lead organization: International Institute for Child Rights and Development

Partner organization: Save the Children Fund Canada

Description:

IICRD conducts research on best practices. A booklet entitled Out From the Shadows: Good Practices in Working with Sexually Exploited Youth (2001) has been written by Liza Goulet and will be available shortly on this wesbite. The programs described in this booklet provide information on some current strategies being applied in the Americas and identify those elements that have been most successful in assisting sexually exploited children and youth to either exit the trade or to reduce its harmful effects.

IICRD has also worked to create a post-secondary curriculum. IICRD is working on a module-based curriculum for professionals working with sexually-exploited youth. This is being developed in partnership with Save the Children Fund Canada.
