世界卫生组织等多家国际机构发布报告,对全球儿童保护工作敲响警钟。1报告指出,全球每年约有10亿儿童遭受身体、性或心理暴力。1在对155个国家进行的调查中发现,虽然88%的国家已制定儿童保护法律,但其中仅47%国家对这些法律进行了强有力的执行。12017年,全球约40,000名18岁以下儿童死于谋杀。1
报告采用INSPIRE框架对各国防暴进展进行评估,同时也揭示了防控工作的多项薄弱环节。1仅54%的国家在学校入学方面取得进展,而为儿童改善安全物理环境的国家比例仅为15%。1在数据收集方面,83%的国家建立了国家级儿童暴力数据系统,但其中仅21%的数据被用于设定基线和制定国家目标。1
新冠疫情期间暴露出保护措施的进一步缺陷。1学校关闭导致许多儿童被困在施暴者身边,同时网络欺凌和性剥削事件随之增加。1联合国儿童基金会执行主任亨丽埃塔·福尔表示:"封锁措施和学校关闭导致太多儿童被困在施暴者身边。"1
Multiple international organizations have released a report revealing that approximately one billion children experience physical, sexual, or psychological violence annually worldwide, with nations falling short in implementing existing protection strategies 1. The report examined 155 countries' progress under the INSPIRE framework and found that while 88 percent of countries have enacted child protection laws, only 47 percent enforce them robustly 1. In 2017 alone, roughly 40,000 children under 18 were killed through homicide 1.
The findings expose significant gaps between policy and implementation. Only 54 percent of countries have made progress in improving school-based safety, and just 15 percent have enhanced the physical security of environments for children 1. Although 83 percent of countries maintain national-level data on violence against children, only 21 percent use this information to establish baselines and set national targets 1. The report marks the first time such a comprehensive global assessment has been conducted across this breadth of nations 1.
The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified risks for vulnerable children. School closures isolated children with their abusers while limiting access to support, and cases of online bullying and sexual exploitation increased during lockdowns 1. Henrietta Fore, Executive Director of UNICEF, stated: "Lockdowns and school closures left too many children trapped with their abusers" 1.
