Child trafficking for commercial sexual exploitation (CSE) is a complex phenomenon, requiring multifaceted programs and policies by various stakeholders. A number of publications have focused on preventing this heinous crime. Less attention, however, has been paid to the recovery and rehabilitation of children who have been traumatized as a result of being trafficked for CSE. This article focuses on the first step in the protection and recovery process, which is to ensure that procedures are in place for their identification, so that they might access timely and appropriate assistance. It highlights three situational and two child-related challenges to identification. In addition, it describes the additional victimization experienced by children who are wrongly arrested for crimes associated with prostitution or illegal border crossings, rather than being identified as victims. An extensive literature review was conducted, and included academic publications, as well as governmental and non-governmental reports. In addition, field-based qualitative research was undertaken in South and Southeast Asia, and involved interviews with representatives from United Nations and governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and aftercare recovery programs.
以商业性剥削为目的的儿童贩运是一个复杂的现象，需要各利益相关方制定多方面的计划和政策。许多出版物都聚焦于预防这一令人发指的罪行。然而，对于因以商业性剥削为目的被贩运而受到创伤的儿童的康复和重新融入社会，关注较少。本文关注保护和康复过程的第一步，即确保有程序对他们进行识别，以便他们能够获得及时和适当的援助。它强调了识别过程中面临的三个情境挑战和两个与儿童相关的挑战。此外，它还描述了那些因与卖淫或非法越境相关罪行而被错误逮捕、而非被识别为受害者的儿童所遭受的额外伤害。我们进行了广泛的文献综述，包括学术出版物以及政府和非政府报告。此外，还在南亚和东南亚开展了实地定性研究，采访了联合国和政府机构、非政府组织（NGO）以及后续护理康复项目的代表。
