six main areas of action: awareness raising and prevention; information and
training; improving coordination through the strengthening of networks;
strengthening the ability of children and adolescents to recognize situations
where they are at risk of commercial sexual exploitation; legislation and
legal procedures; and research. Within each area of action, there are
specific objectives and activities. Report by Special
