'Higit kalahating milyong batang Pilipino ang nabiktima': Laban kontra online child exploitation ng mga bata sa Pilipinas mas pinaigting

Gigi Tupas, IJM Australia

The International Justice Mission (IJM) works with Philippine and Australian government agencies and international law enforcement partners to strengthen child protection systems.

Sa gitna ng patuloy na banta ng online sexual abuse and exploitation of children (OSAEC), binibigyang-diin ng child protection advocates at law enforcement agencies na kayang mapagtagumpayan ang laban upang maprotektahan ang mga batang Pilipino laban sa online predators.


Key Points
  • Noong 2022, tinatayang halos kalahating milyong batang Pilipino, o humigit-kumulang 1 sa bawat 100 bata, ang na-traffic upang pilitin sa paggawa ng child sexual exploitation material (CSEM) para pagkakitaan sa datos ng Scale of Harm prevalence study ng International Justice Mission (IJM) at University of Nottingham Rights Lab.
  • Base sa mga pag-aaral at datos ng mga awtoridad, kabilang ang United States, United Kingdom, at Australia sa mga bansang pinagmumulan ng malaking demand sa online child sexual exploitation na may mga biktima sa Pilipinas.
  • Ayon kay Gigi Tupas, Senior Lead for Engagement ng IJM Australia, mahalaga ang pandaigdigang kooperasyon, mas matibay na pananagutan ng mga tech companies, at tuloy-tuloy na public awareness upang maprotektahan ang mga batang vulnerable laban sa online predators.
  • Mahalaga ang papel ng Philippine Internet Crimes Against Children Center (PICACC) sa koordinasyon ng intelligence sharing, rescue operations, at imbestigasyon ng mga kaso.
