ESNNA CODE
RESPONSIBLE TOURISM: OUR COMMITMENT AGAINST CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION
What is the ESNNA Code?
The ESNNA program is a national policy created to prevent and eradicate the sexual exploitation of minors in the tourism sector. As a company committed to slow and conscious tourism, we consider it essential to protect the most vulnerable in our society.
Child sexual exploitation constitutes a serious violation of human rights that violates the physical, social and emotional development of girls, boys and adolescents. This problem can manifest itself in various ways:
- Sexual exploitation in the field of tourism and travel.
- Online sexual exploitation (Internet and digital technologies).
- Human trafficking for sexual exploitation
Reality in figures
As part of our commitment to responsible tourism, at ANTIS EXPEDITIONS we implement the following measures:
In Peru:
- 3.98% of the Peruvian adult population acknowledges having been a victim of sexual exploitation before the age of 18 (2015).
- Between 14,000 and 26,000 minors between 10 and 17 years old are exposed to possible sexual exploitation nationwide.
- Official figures are limited due to the hidden nature of this crime.
Worldwide:
- Mexico: 20,000 estimated victims in sex tourism (ECPAT, 2016).
- Philippines: 100,000 minors victims of sexual exploitation (ECPAT, 2016).
- 64.8% of victims of child sexual abuse material are girls (ECPAT, 2018)
As part of our commitment to responsible tourism, at ANTIS EXPEDITIONS we implement the following measures:
