Children of Asia 2
(Asiens barn 2)
Age: High school
Through this material we wish to bring one of Asia’s
largest and most serious problems to light; child
prostitution.
You will meet young people and children in Manila, the
capital of the Philippines, through a film and teacher’s
guide. Star of Hope has had a unique opportunity to get
really close to these children and can therefore show
you their every day lives just as they are.
The material gives a general knowledge about Asia and an
understanding to how children can end up in
prostitution, with Manila and the Philippines as
examples. It shows the situation in today’s society and
also throws light on child prostitution as a whole in
Asia. Why is it such a big problem in Asia and what does
the community do to prevent it?
The material shows why children end up in situations
like this. How are Sweden and the north, as well as all
other western societies connected to child prostitution
in Manila? Sextourism to the Philippines? What do we do
to work against and prevent this? What do we do to help
these children, to stop them from being used? What do
local organizations do?
We want to give young people and teachers awareness
about the fact that this is an area with many problems
that concern us as well. We hope to broaden young
peoples’ knowledge and to make them feel solidarity. We
want them to take responsibility for the world we all
live in and the circumstances children and people around
the world live in. In the long run we hope that when
these kids grow up they will help to make this world a
better place.
The short-term goal is for students and teachers to get
a greater knowledge of Asian children and to feel that
they can help to change these children’s reality. The
teacher’s guide includes additional material about child
prostitution and how that is a result of poverty and
migration. This is distributed on a CD.
Schools will also have the opportunity to book lectures.
