Effective Implementation of the OPSC 2010, para. 87
Paragraph
Paragraph text
While it may be less obvious, this phenomenon also results in children being sold or trafficked. Talibé boys (religious students) as well as children from rural areas or neighbouring countries are found on the streets of certain major cities. These children, who live on the street and must fend for themselves in very difficult conditions, often fall victim to abuse and sexual exploitation.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Rapporteur on the sale and sexual exploitation of children, including child prostitution, child pornography and other child sexual abuse material
