MADAGASCAR: UN RIGHTS EXPERT CALLS FOR GREATER EFFORTS TO TACKLE CHILD
SEXUAL EXPLOITATIONNew York, Jul 26 2013 12:00PMAn independent United
Nations human rights expert today encouraged the Government of
Madagascar to step up efforts to combat the sexual exploitation of
children and ensure that perpetrators are punished.

"The scourge of sexual exploitation of children through prostitution
or sex tourism is omnipresent and too often justified by poverty. Its
exponential growth, in particular since 2009, underlined by all
stakeholders met, is alarming," said Najat Maalla M'jid, the Special
Rapporteur on the sale of children, child prostitution and child
pornography.

"Its actual scope remains difficult to determine, due, among other
factors, to reluctance to report and fear of reprisals. The low number
of reported cases is very rarely followed by heavy sanctions, as
provided by Malagasy law," she stated in a
<"http://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=13582&LangID=E">news
release issued following her official visit to the country.

During her 15 to 26 July mission, the expert met with various State
and local authorities, as well as representatives from UN agencies,
the diplomatic community, civil society and the private sector. She
also met child victims and went to the main spots of child sexual
exploitation in the capital, Antananarivo, as well as in Toliara, Nosy
Be and Toamasina.

Ms. Maalla M'jid noted the alarming poverty affecting 92 per cent of
the population, as a result of successive political crises. This
socio-economic precariousness affecting families and communities has
considerably increased the number of children out of school and the
vulnerability of children to all forms of economic and sexual
exploitation, she noted.

She also raised with concern the survival strategy adopted by many
parents who encourage their children to enter prostitution.

Madagascar, the expert pointed out, has a relatively complete legal
framework but the implementation of these laws is significantly
compromised by a lack of effectiveness due to corruption, impunity and
difficult access for children to reporting mechanisms ensuring their
protection and security.

"Amicable settlements take place at the expense of the rights of
children, whose voice is rarely taken into account," the news release
stated.

Despite initiatives such as the National Committee for the Protection
of Children, Child Protection Networks and centres for legal and
psychological counselling, care and assistance to children remains
very partial and suffers from a significant lack of resources.

The Special Rapporteur stressed the gravity of the situation and the
necessity to act urgently to ensure an integrated protective framework
for children.

"It is unacceptable that so many lives of Malagasy children are
sacrificed under the excuse of the current political and economic
crisis," said Ms. Maalla M'jid, who encouraged the international
community to support the establishment of integrated child protection
and development plans at the local level to efficiently combat all
forms of violence, abuse and exploitation of children.

Independent experts, or special rapporteurs, are appointed by the
Geneva-based UN Human Rights Council to examine and report back on a
country situation or a specific human rights theme. The positions are
honorary and the experts are not UN staff, nor are they paid for their
work.Jul 26 2013 12:00PM
