Joint report with SRSG Violence against Children on child-sensitive complaint mechanisms 2011, para. 112b
- Paragraph text
- [Where mechanisms exist, it is critical to secure their availability to and accessibility by all children, without discrimination, and to ensure that they act in an ethical, effective and child-sensitive manner and pursue the best interests of the child at all times. To this end:] An institutional, coordinated and integrated response should be pursued across relevant sectors, including justice, law enforcement, social welfare, education and health. This effort should be supported by: (i) initiatives to enhance staff capacity in child-sensitive case management; (ii) putting in place an effective system of referral of complaints to appropriate authorities, with obligations to investigate where a child may be at risk, and enabling relevant authorities to intervene to protect children in danger; and (iii) child-sensitive judicial proceedings;

- [Where mechanisms exist, it is critical to secure their availability to and accessibility by all children, without discrimination, and to ensure that they act in an ethical, effective and child-sensitive manner and pursue the best interests of the child at all times. To this end:] National human rights institutions should be established in all countries by 2013 to safeguard children's freedom from violence; they should provide for, inter alia, child-sensitive counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms; independent monitoring of measures to address violence; and effective remedies and redress, including the possibility of seeking advice and filing complaints before these institutions;

Paragraph
Protection of children from sale and sexual exploitation following humanitarian crisis due to natural disasters 2012, para. 89
- Paragraph text
- While States retain primary responsibility for the protection of children in a natural disaster, fulfilment of these obligations are frequently challenged as a result of absent or incapacitated institutional and legal structures. Despite the many actors and stakeholders providing emergency response services in natural disasters, children continue to face significant risk, both within and without the protection perimeter. The absence of a comprehensive framework for the coordination and allocation of roles and responsibilities of multiple international and local responders frequently leads to confusion, unnecessary duplication of efforts and substantial protection gaps. This is complicated by limitations or overlaps in organizational mandates - many of which do not address the issue of child protection - and a near absence of quantitative and qualitative data that would clarify the extent of risks faced by children in natural disasters.

Approach, vision and work methods 2014, para. 41
- Paragraph text
- The year 2015 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the establishment of the mandate on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography. Its continuous renewal underscores the need for the international community to step up efforts to combat the increasing phenomena of sexual abuse and exploitation of children. To properly discharge her functions and ensure the effective implementation of her mandate, stronger support, through the allocation of sufficient means and resources, will be key in the coming years, in particular to ensure appropriate follow-up to her recommendations.

Existing guidelines, such as the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism and the Code of Conduct for the Protection of Children from Sexual Exploitation in Travel and Tourism, should be universally followed by members of the private sector and mainstreamed in all their activities and across the supply chain. Compliance with those guidelines should be enforced and monitored.

Protection of children from sale and sexual exploitation following humanitarian crisis due to natural disasters 2012, para. 114
- Paragraph text
- When possible, children should be evacuated from their place of residence with adult family members. Separation should be undertaken as a last resort, on a temporary basis, and only where it has been determined that protection and assistance cannot be provided in that location and when evacuation of the entire family is not possible or feasible. Evacuations should be kept to a location as close as possible to the child's home and family and undertaken with the informed and written consent of the parents and in the best interests of the child.

Information and communication technologies and the sale and sexual exploitation of children 2015, para. 84
- Paragraph text
- Children are among those who are most familiar with information and communication technologies. While new technologies offer a myriad of opportunities for children, they also present new risks and threats. Criminal behaviour facilitated by new technologies includes online child abuse material and online sexual exploitation of children. Moreover, information and communication technologies facilitate new forms of criminal behaviour, such as the live streaming of child abuse and the online solicitation of children.

Sale of children for the purpose of forced labour 2016, para. 98
- Paragraph text
- The present study has shown that when harmful practices are socially accepted, protective factors are low and pull factors strong, a child can be sold and exploited in forced labour conditions. Addressing the issue therefore requires comprehensive approaches that take into account the demand factor as well as the specific vulnerabilities of children being sold for the purpose of forced labour, while recognizing children as rights holders, entitled to protection but also to recognition of their agency in function of their evolving capacities.

It is critical to address the root causes of tolerance of violence against children, reasons for underreporting, and barriers for accessing available services.

- Child participation is critical to the development of any national strategy based on child rights that is designed to prevent the sale and sexual exploitation of children and ensure their protection, recovery and reintegration. Child participation helps to widen the outreach of advocacy and awareness-raising initiatives and empowers children to gain confidence and trust and promote peer education about the harm caused by sale and sexual exploitation. Children's perspectives and experiences contribute to consolidating effective child protection systems and upholding a culture of respect for children's rights. Children's views and recommendations enrich the design of policies and the enactment of legislation.
