The Czech Republic is a prosperous country with a well-developed economic and political infrastructure and an educated population. At-risk populations, like the Roma and abandoned Czech and foreign national children under state care, remain at-risk for commercial sexual exploitation. The Czech government has implemented many measures to eradicate child sex tourism but cities like Prague remain a popular destination for Western Europeans.
While the number of incidents of street prostitution has declined, there are still children being exploited in the countries underbelly of brothels, sex clubs and private commercial sex establishments.
Unfortunately incidents of sex trafficking also appear to be on the rise in the Czech Republic, with Roma children thought to be at greater risk.
Despite this, there are no measures designed to address this group specifically. The Czech Republic has policies in place to combat CSEC but attention must be focused on at-risk populations and addressing the hidden world of child prostitution and child sex tourism.
