Resources To Help Combat Sex Tourism of Children
In order to effectively combat the problem of sex
tourism of children, it is necessary that travel agencies, airlines, and
hotels educate their clients about child victims of prostitution and the
criminal/legal issues for traveling to countries where it is prevalent.
The tourists need to be educated about where to
report instances of sex tourism of children or other forms of child exploitation
that they may view. In addition to making the tourism industry aware of
this problem, the governments of both the consumer and host countries
need to increase their role in preventing it.
