Commercial sexual exploitation of children in tourism
As in other Latin American countries, there are numerous street children in Ecuador, who as a consequence of their poverty can slide into prostitution. In addition, there is also evidence of trafficking in children in Ecuador, in parallel with the increase in sex tourism.
Investigations show that in 2008 every second child came from a family that was not able to pay for food, housing, education, and medical care. As a consequence, these children do not go to school, and 40.5% are forced to start work at ages between 5 and 9 years and 63% between 10 and 14 years. In a country that is struggling against underemployment and employment, often the only opportunity to offer itself is prostitution. They then become victims of exploitation by traffickers and sex tourists.
Corruption and the loose interpretation of existing laws favour a rapid growth of demand and supply in the field of commercial sex. No official notice is yet taken of this problem, so that no reliable statistics are available.
HIV/ Aids
According to estimates from UNAIDS and the World Health Organization, at the end of 2007 approximately 76.000 people in Ecuador were infected with HIV, including 47.100 women. How many children were infected, could not be estimated. In the same year 21.200 Ecuadorians died following infection with HIV.
Washington -- It is the right time for Ecuador to act to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS within its borders, says an official with the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF).
In an October 20 statement, UNICEF's Paul Martin said that although the incidence of AIDS in Ecuador -- a country of about 13 million people -- is low compared to sub-Saharan Africa, the disease is spreading at an "alarming rate," especially among women and children. Because of this, Martin said, "preventive action and education are needed so that the evolving history" of HIV/AIDS, "which has resulted in the current dramatic situation in several countries of sub-Saharan Africa, does not repeat itself" in Ecuador.
Martin said HIV/AIDS is affecting women and children in Ecuador at rates higher than ever before. Since 1984, there have been 5,630 officially recorded cases of HIV/AIDS in Ecuador, with 1,546 cases resulting in deaths, Martin said. In 1994, men had much higher rates of HIV/AIDS infection than women, with approximately seven men infected for every one infected woman, but in 2004 that ratio had been reduced to 2-to-1.
Of the 1800 cases of HIV/AIDS reported in Ecuador in 2003, more than 80 percent of the cases were in Ecuador's coastal region, with the majority of those cases in Guayas Province, whose capital is Guayaquil. The country's Sierra highlands region had 17 percent of the cases reported nationally, Martin said.
Overall in Latin America, Martin said, the prevalence of HIV/AIDS in the adult population of the region stands between 1.5 percent and 1.7 percent, as compared to sub-Saharan Africa's rate of 7.5 percent to 8.5 percent, the highest rate in the world.
