KUHL, Franciele Letícia  and  CUSTODIO, André Viana. Contemporary reflections on commercial sexual exploitation of children and adolescents in the tourism market in Peru. Prolegómenos [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.46, pp.105-120. ISSN 0121-182X.  https://doi.org/10.18359/prole.3505.

This work seeks to prove the relationship between public policies and norms and the causes of commercial sexual exploitation of children in tourism in Peru. To achieve this purpose, legal protection and national and international public policies regulating child labor in the country were studied, as well as the results obtained by End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking of Children for Sexual Purposes, in the “Global study on sexual exploitation of children in travel and tourism: regional report Latin America”, 2016, which brought poverty, low educational level and the absence of specific programs as the main factors of commercial sexual exploitation of children. Despite regulatory advances and public policy efforts to eradicate child labor, the causes of commercial child sexual exploitation still persist. The approach method is deductive and the monographic procedure method is bibliographic and documentary research.

Keywords : commercial sexual exploitation; Peru; child labor.
